Ho! Ho! Ho!


Tis the season to be jolly fa la la la la la la la la. We are so excited for Christmas this year. We gave Santa our list and now we just have to be good so we get what we want. We always joke around about being the Griswald's because of how we have to bring our tree home, strapped to the car. Our tree this year I think is the biggest except for when we chopped one down with Chris' dad. You can never tell how tall a tree is when the sky is the ceiling. Our tree this year was large though but it did turn out wonderful. I just hope it will stay alive until Christmas.






Some day I will have a designer tree. This will do for now.


The funniest news of all is that Chris was asked to be our ward Santa! I laughed so hard when he told me because he doesn't look one bit like him. Chris in skinny and bald. They gave him suit that looked like a dollar store suit (If I would have known that it was going to be that cheap I would have went a rented a nice suit.) He did great, he didn't rush the kids and I got lots of comments of what a good Santa he was. Now I am afraid that as long as we live here he will be the Santa. Next year though I will get the suit.

Oh, how sweet! What a nice complement that they ward thought that he would make a good kind Santa! It sounds like you have a keeper Celest! And your tree is beautiful!

Your tree is so cute! Enjoy the glass and breakables while you don't have kids. We went all plastic this year. Porter likes to use them for base ball. Chir looks like a good Santa. Can't wait to see you guys in Idaho.

My dad has a really nice suit that you can borrow! Someone should use it occasionally. We only use it for family stuff now.

That is funny that Chris got to play santa. I bet he had a good time.

Okay, I'm sorry I never got back to you! I have finally gotten ahold of this blogging thing. I had to figure it all out by myself. I'm a little proud of that! I am not computer savvy at all. Anyhoo, I'm so excited that you found me because I've been wondering about you for forever! I'm glad you still exist. Where are you? What are you doing. I guess I should read your profile.
