Unfortunately, not much of my family went to the cabin this weekend. It was just my parents and Jason, Joy, and Jocelyn. We had lots of fun with them but it was sad we didn't get to see anyone else. Tianna was sad too. She kept asking for each cousin, by name, over and over again. Next time... she had a good time seeing Aden and Jocelyn though.
At the cabin we decorated for Christmas and found our Cabin Christmas tree in record time. It's a beauty!
Later on Friday we had to travel back to Castle Dale. Luke and his dad went on a 24 hour coyote calling contest (where they triple tied for second place) and I had Luke's sister's bridal shower to attend. Luke had a really good time even though the weather didn't allow for the results they wanted. I had fun at the shower though- especially eating the chocolate fountain goodies! YUM!
Afterwards we went BACK to the cabin (we always end up traveling back and forth too much- oh well) but it was nice spending a relaxing Sabbath in the mountains. :P and then we made the lovely drive back to Logan.
I topped the WONDERFUL weekend off with the stomache flu all day on Monday. That part.. i really could have done without. But........... now it's officially the Christmas season and I'm way excited.
Here's a picture of our Christmas Tree and Nativity Scene at our house. I finally have all of the pieces to my Nativity... I got a part of it each Christmas we've been married and finally have it all. I figure it took 3 years for the REAL wisemen to show up, so it was okay that it took my until our 3rd Christmas to get our wisemen. It's so interesting though-- notice how the animals are surrounding the baby. Tianna did that--- she must know what it was really like because I didn't teach her to do that. This picture makes our tree look really OVERLOADED... maybe it is, but it doesn't look that bad in person. I wish you could see our PEACOCK ornaments though! I'm so glad that was in style last year.

I love the nativity! you got me hooked on the willow tree figurines:)! It was so good to see you again and I am glad you guys were able to come.
busy weekend. We have the same nativity set. I love it.
I am sorry you got sick, that is never fun. I was looking in a magazine today and saw that nativity scene. I thought, "I WANT that!" but then I looked at the prices and thought, "Hmm...probably not all at once!" It was smart of you to work at it a little at a time. Glad to hear it is complete - love it! Oh, and LOVE your tree too!

Oh, I hate that! And then you're kicking yourself after for not taking pix. But at least the ones you took were super cute. That Tianna--she's adorable.
Your Christmas tree looks so pretty; definitely not overloaded, just well decorated.
I love your nativity. That's one of my favorite things to set up!
