December
December was great! We started out with putting up our christmas tree. It's a little tree that we have had since St. George, but it fits great in our little area. I put up the tree while Logan and Erik played of course. That seems to be the dad's duty a lot of the time! Go figure! Anyway, then came my 29th birthday! Kelli made me a delicious mayonaise cake (Thank you Grandma Betty) We headed down to Lehi and Gillilan's watched logan while we went to dinner and saw Twilight. I was excited to finally see it. Gary and Christina had a cake for me there too. Thanks everyone for a great b-day! Then came all the christmas festivities. Layton lights, ogden lights and temple lights! and of course Santa Claus! Logan loved all of it. It was cold and he was always a little trooper! We were able to do the advent calendar all month also (thanks Christina and Gary) Logan loved this and finally the countdown was over! Christmas eve was at my aunt and uncle Duehlmeir's! this is great food and fun! the three wise guys come and share all sorts of gifts for the kids. This is a fun tradition we have. Christmas day we woke up and Logan got to see his train and his kitchen. He loved this. He also got some new DVD's. We then went into the Gillilan's and of course we were all spoiled there. Thanks Gary and Christina. A couple days later we all got together (my family) and skyped my parents. They got to watch us open our presents (that they sent home with me when I visited indonesia) The kids did their exchange and it was fun! One of the highlights of my month was being in the ward choir christmas program. It was an awesome experience and the spirit was so strong with the beautiful songs and words. I loved it! We had a great holiday season and are thankful for all we have and that we were able to celebrate the Lord's birth. Hope you all had a great holiday!

Ive said this before... I would really like the recipe for the mayo cake! If it is a family secret or something, Betty shouldn't mind if I have it because we share the same birthday. That little Logan is quite a handsome fellow, I want to squeeze him! Glad you had a good Christmas.
Glad you all had fun holidays...we always have a good time when you come down to visit. We sure do love you all! I don't think I've ever had a mayonnaise cake...I'll have to try it sometime! =)
Sounds like you had an eventful December. I enjoyed looking at all your pictures. I think Gary's mom used to make the mayo cake also.
Loved the light pictures. I won't show my girls, we went to Tuacahn and they were closed that night due to snow, so we tried the temple and their lights were broken (also due to snow). I must admit I miss Salt Lake a little at Christmas. So are you coming down?
All of the pictures are so cute. I can't believe how big Logan is. It seems like you just had him. What day is your b-day? Tyson's is the 23rd. Glad you're holiday was good.
