What a Christmas!

Merry Christmas! We woke up around 8 am, the kids slept in. Later I found out that Mik got up around 2am and came upstairs, then ran back downstairs, jumped on Lisa and Scott screaming "it's Christmas, it's Christmas, Santa has been here, come on mom get up" Lisa told him to be quite and go back to sleep, and he did.

It was fun watching the kids open their presents all excited about what they got. Mik was an animal, opening up everything he could, and then started on the presents under the tree, until his mom said to wait until the girls had finished. The presents were all opened and then we had french toast for breakfast. Yum! It continued to snow from the night before. Scott went out and used the snow blower and did all the neighbors, helping others with their driveways and sidewalks. The day was going good, I went and took a shower late, and then came into the kitchen to start to fix somethings for dinner since the kids will be here about 3 or 4 pm. Lisa and I were in the kitchen when the back door flew opened and Scott was bleeding and saying this isn't the best Christmas so far. He had cut the tip of his index finger almost all the way off, as I was screaming and freaking out, putting my shoes on and having Scott West drive us to the emergency room, since Brad had the truck. and the roads were not that great, and our Camry wouldn't even make it out of our neighborhood. Well after 3 hours later Scott had 14 stitches and has to see a hand specialist on Monday. He has been on pain meds so he can't drive, so I am the designated driver, ye ha!!

Scott had wanted to surprise me with a new car, but he has had a hard time in finding the one he wanted, they are all sold, my brother Lynn works for Gus Paulos in West Valley, he sent him to a sales associate and he has been working with Scott, he finally found one up in Logan so we are picking it up tomorrow, they will bring it down. I will post a picture of when we get it. So all in all everything has worked out and all is well. So What a Christmas it was! I hope all of you enjoyed your Christmas and that no mishaps were in your day or anything else. I love Christmas, even if things happen that you don't plan, it makes it more interesting and memorable. I know that my savior lives and I do love him and am so grateful for his great example. I love my family and the love they show us and are always there for us. I just want you all to know that I do love you and appreciate all that you do for Scott and I and that we are so grate full for your friendship. Have a great day!!
