Christmas with the Smith's

Christmas eve was spent eating in the dark, starting a prayer but no one said Amen, watching Tanner and Josie show us their beautiful dance moves, and Grandpa Great singing Away in the Manger very loudly, we had elves knock at the door, and Santa even made an appearance. We had so much fun and were glad that Mom and Dad let us all stay there for longer than they wanted. Christmas morning was fun to watch Josie and Payton open presents. They were really excited this year and knew what it was all about. Grandma asked Josie who brought Jesus presents and she knew right a way that it was the wise men. Then she said " See I know my things." Too Cute. Payton loved his trains and was super excited every time he opened one. I think he got about 7. Haylee was just having fun getting into every one else's things. Tanner and Leisha were also there. It snowed a lot. It just kept snowing and snowing and snowing but too cold and wet to play in. Melissa and Landon even had to stay over another night because there was way to much snow. The next morning Melissa and her family left. Adam and I tried to make a snowman but the wind had blown too much. I dried out all the snow. The rest of the day we played Wii with Tanner and Leisha. We also played boggleand pictureka. Leisha and I make a magnet board. Then they had to go home. That night we watched The Christmas Story and Trapped in Paradise with mom and dad. On Saturday we were going to go eat with mom and dad then go home. Well we made it to Preston and the weather was yucky so we ate at Pizza Villa and went back to mom's. On Sunday morning we got up and finally made it back to Orem. I am so grateful that we got to spend so much time with our families this holiday season. We love you all and missed the ones we didn't get to see.
