I always think "this year was just the best ever!" ...but then the next one is better still. Our 2011 Christmas and 2012 New Year's Day had us all together, which is the best part of any holiday! Lindee got to hold her ONLY little niece, we got to see Chris and Lisa's tiny one blessed the day after Christmas by a family full of loving worthy Priesthood holders, everyone got to see that Britney actually DOES have a bit of a "baby (boy) bump" and we got to participate in another of Michael & Anita's mystery dinners. What fun! We even had Lisa's mom join us for Christmas Eve and Christmas. I think she brought much more than her share of goodies!
I have to say that, although we ALWAYS have fun when we get together with ANY of our children & grandchildren, it is such a precious thing to have ALL of them enjoying one another. Lon and I feel like our "cup runneth over" at those cherished moments. Thanks to all of our family for making the holidays so special.
Lon and his band got to play twice for New Years...once for "First Night" at CBC for the community and again for the Single Adults in our stake. Tami & Joe's little family and Chris & Lisa went to the "First Night" with encouraging shouts of "Go Papa!!" for his "Wipe Out" rendition, and Landon & Britney, Michael & Angie, & I went to the Singles performance. Michael & Landon went in Lon's Hawaiian shirts to match the band and rocked out on their cardboard guitars. Those singles will probably never see THAT much life in any other dance they go to!!
