It came and went fast, just like usual, and now Christmas 2008 is in the past. I don't remember ever having a better time with my family than we had. We played lots and lots of games, laughed, ate, prayed for safe travel in the snow, had a talent show, took pictures of us all making ugly faces, (and yes it was hilarious), talked, went bowling (where after making 3 gutter balls, Anneke got a strike on a red pin and won a free game, and we watched Kate's ball roll very slowly down the lane for about 3 minutes while she was off playing) watched football, watched movies, ate some more, cut hair, hugged and kissed little girls, shoveled snow, shot clay pigeons, laughed at Sam diving in the snow in his shorts and flip flops and then running fast into a hot shower (silly Arizona boy) and thoroughly enjoyed each other's company. And did I mention how much we laughed??? We think we're a pretty funny bunch. It was a beautiful, snowy, cozy Christmas too. I'm just so thankful for this wonderful time of the year, for my precious family, and for the birth and life of our Savior.
