Christmas Day!

Nothing says party quite like Christmas pants! Amanda and Crystal arrived in Utah last night, and Brittany and John joined us in time to open our new Winter Wear!

The day started out right with Ed making breakfast for me, omelettes and blueberry pancakes! He also shoveled the driveways and vacuumed the house! That was a great birthday/Christmas present!


We joined Mom, Annette and Kent for a great birthday lunch at mom's house. She will be turning 90 this year and is doing amazingly well! She made things easier by buying pre-made pinwheel sandwiches, but even the fact that she is out shopping is a blessing! Ed taught Mom how to use her Pandora app on Roku. She is excited about her Bach and Beethoven stations!

Crystal's plane came in about 7:30, and we had time to try out the new restaurant area at the cell phone lot while we waited for Amanda. We shared a Costa Vida nachos plate, which was just the ticket for Christmas evening!

Hugo did well on his airplane flight, and was still awake enough when we got home that Brittany was able to coax a few smiles out of him!

John was playing his beautiful new autoharp when we got home. I had no idea that a nice one could have such a good sound!

We topped off a great day playing a rousing game of pit. We're looking forward to holing up in the basement this week and playing music. We also look forward to Nolan joining us on the 28th after he gets home from his jaunt with the Iowa marching band to New York City's Pinstripe Bowl!
