The Forgotton Carols


17 years ago I got a CD called the Forgotten Carols for Christmas. The next year I learned there was a story and a play that went along with it. I had to have tickets to the play because I fell in love with the book and music.

A few years ago it became tradition to read the story for family home evening. Then 4 years ago my sweet mother in law decided to make a tradition of taking all the girls out to see the play. Now my daughters are just as in love with the play, story and music as I am.

What a sweet tradition for us to be a part of. Especially when it brings such a wonderful spirit to the holiday season. It makes me so thankful for other peoples talents and that they are so willing to share.

Thanksgiving Day


Christmas Ornament tradition

Every year each one of us gets a new ornament to represent things in our lives that we like for the past year.

This year

Braydon started guitar lessons--


Hunter lives for lego's so when I found a lego ornament that was the one for him.

Sidney got a trumpet, she is amazing on her horn. I wanted her to remember the good times she has had in band this past year.
Alex's ornament is a rock. She loves rocks and with all the rock hunting we have done she needed something to remind her of that.
