Christmas 2009

This Christmas we found ourselves back in our favorite place on earth, The Brian Ranch in Grover, UT. It was quite a magical time being in the newly finished house and having extended family at the neighboring homes. Christmas Eve we all got together for appetizers, soup, and a Christmas Eve program complete with a nativity performance from the kids and a visit from Santa. We had the best time all being together again. We were sad when the week was over but are excited knowing we'll spend many more holidays back at the ranch!

The kids had one last gift waiting at home. It was all Riley had asked for this year. She was beyond excited to say the least.
