Christmas Joys....

These are just some of the things that brought us joy this past Christmas.....

We hosted two Starks Family parties at our house this year. One was on the 22nd. It was a cookie party for the kids. We decorated Nutter-Butters to look like reindeer, and we made Rolo Turtles.......mmmmmmmmmm......those are my favorites! We also decided to have the Starks families over again on Christmas Eve. It was a wonderful party, and almost everyone was able to make it (we missed you Emilie). We ate, and exchanged gifts, read the Christmas story from the scriptures and had a talent show too. It was an important night for us to get together as a family and just share some good times. Here are some pics from those events.



Christmas day started out opening presents at our houes...and the rest of the day was spent with the Daly side of our family....another WONDERFUL time!! Again, we ate, exchanged gifts, and played played played. All the while we were missing our out-of-town families terribly. We really look forward to being all together again for the holidays soon!!



At one point in the day, Uncle Rob went outside and fired up Braden's dirtbike, which was still up at the house from the dunes trip I guess. Jon heard it, and next think you know, he was zipping around the yard and down the road!! He took to it FAST....even though he'd never ridden one before. He loves it, and I think we are in for much more dirt bike ridding in our future!!



and PS - I didn't know he was riding until I was called outside to watch...I promptly got him a HELMET!!

We also got a fun box of goodies from our friends Merce and Manolo in Ponferrada, Spain. Lots of Spanish sweets! We were all very excited about it, especially the kids!



We hope all our friends and family had wonderful holidays and a happy new year!!!
