Christmas 2009

Christmas 2009 was so much fun for us as a family. Some of the highlights included riding the train to Salt Lake to see the lights on Temple Square. With UTA's Front Runner now going as far as Ogden, we were able to board there and ride it all the way into the Salt Lake train depot. From there it was a short ride on Trax's to Temple Square. It was the kids first time riding a train and they loved it. Temple Square was cold that night. Lexie loved seeing the statue of Christ for the first time. When she turned the corner and saw how big it was she just stopped and starred. She then tried to scoot down the walking ramp like a slide while we were leaving.
Christmas Eve included our traditional reenacting of Luke 2. This year Riley was Joseph, Ariana was Mary, and Lexie was the Angel. Christmas day was full of presents, even though Ariana said she was worried Santa was not coming on account of how Riley teases her. Along with everything else, Riley received a Nintendo DSi. Ariana got a doll that swims in the bathtub, and Lexie got a Little Mermaid Barbie. Daddy gave Mom a Christmas Helicopter ride over Logan to see the lights and the Temple. And Dad got a new camping mattress.
