2012

I forgot about blogging for a bit.  Holidays came with gusto and getting into Jenny's room (which is now empty and ready for house guests because she is rocking it at BYU-I) was not so easy.
 So here we are.
Christmas went way too fast.  Maybe because we had that dreaded stomach flu.  It started on the 19th and ended on the 26th.  Jenny couldn't even open her presents and Dave was in the middle of making our favorite sausages and ran upstairs.  No one even ate the sausages.  Well Tucker helped himself to them while I drove Filippo to the airport to spend the rest of Christmas with Charles.  Merry Christmas Tucker-I am sure you loved all 2 dozen sausage links. 

So I am sad Christmas was on stand still.  We were supposed to have all of Dave's family over Christmas Eve, but that didn't pan out.  We always get milkshakes and drive around and look at lights on Christmas Eve, but that didn't pan out.  We always act of the nativity, but... you know.  We did read the story of Jesus birth and watch Mr. Kruger's Christmas and Joy to the World DVD's put out by the church. The spirit was sweet and subdued and reverent.  It was nice.  Dave had to work so I was super busy.  Three hours sleep is enough, right?  Luckily everyone was feeling better (except Jenny and Dave) Christmas morning.  Everyone was happy. Everyone loved their gifts.  Everyone remembered Jesus.
