Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!!!!

Here are a few highlights of our Christmas season...

We had the opportunity to attend the Christmas concert at the Conference Center featuring Natalie Cole. Justin and I both love the music of her father, the late Nat King Cole. It was pretty amazing!

Our little group... Oh, how I love this man!!!!

My nephew, Jarom proposed! (He got home from his mission in July!) Aleena's a great girl!

One of the many beautiful trees on Temple Square... this one is in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building

We took a "Train" ride (Trax) into SLC to see the lights on Temple Square. Estin was SO excited! (although you can't really tell from the picture :))

No, that's not Justin... that's Jordan and his family who joined us.

I look like I'm from the "Old Country" :)

Under my favorite tree... "The Atonement Tree"

I am SO grateful for my Savior....especially this time of year. Estin and Cael... fascinated by the tracks!

Estin's not so sure about Santa at our ward party... he kept saying "I think I wanna go home now"

I think Santa won him over!

I think Santa won over Eli too!

The other day Estin came in and said Buddy and Pooh Bear (Coo Bear) were sitting on the stairs waiting to say cheese for their picture.

The Hover family Christmas party... what started it all...TAMALES!

Estin's first Christmas gift of 2009 experience

Eli's learning to roll over! This is as far as he can get right now...
