Christmas 2012

I realize its already the new year and I am barely getting up my Christmas post, my resolution of not procrastinating is coming along wonderful :)

We had a wonderful time in Provo for Christmas, it is so fun to be around all of the Gardner siblings and all the grand kids.

Our time included LOTS of movies for Brad and his nephews Talon and Kyson Maughan they bonded over just about every action hero and lots of popcorn.

 
Playing marbles is always a fun time with Gardners, Kaleigh is learning how to beat Grandpa.
 
 
These two precious faces have moved to Baton Rouge, and we miss them, it was fun to spend time with them. Kaleigh and Emma Hatch.
 
 
Brads grandfather Arden Hutchings every year would read the Christmas Story on Christmas Eve as all the little ones dressed up what an amazing memory I have and grateful that my daughters remember so many years of this tradition, this year Uncle Steve Covey carried out the tradition as Grandpa Big Ard is not well.
 
 
It is a little sad to me that my girls are older now but was so fun to see the next little generation act out the story.

On Christmas Eve Kyndall said "I wonder if Grandpa will make Deer Pee?"



Hahaha Brad convinced the girls when they were little that the hot Wassel that his mom makes was really Deer Pee! They believed him (for a while) and still call it that to this day.

It was a great trip a wonderful Holiday!! It is nice to get back home and focus on the upcoming year (yes I know its already the new year)
I have never been a Goal or Resolution kinda girl but I have some great plans for 2013, stay tuned.
