Merry Christmas (a little late)!  We hope your Christmas was filled with love, family, and fun like ours was.  We feel so blessed to live closer to family now and love being able to spend time with our families.  We spend Christmas at Nate's parents house with Tiff and her family and the cousins had such a great time together.  We had a Mexican Fiesta on Christmas Eve complete with a pinata.  The kids loved it!

They then wrote Santa a little note and made him a plate of cookies (with carrots for Rudolph) and were off to bed.  It is a tradition in the George family that you have to get up and get dressed before you can open presents, so needless to say, the kids were anxious to see what Santa brought!  They loved their new teepee and cowboy and indian dress up clothes.

On Monday morning, we headed up to Kelley Canyon for ski lessons.  There wasn't much snow, but we had fun none the less.  Hayden went up the chairlift for the first time and did great sporting his wedge the whole way down the mountain.

Overall, my kids just loved playing with their cousins.  They dressed up, went bowling and played this cute dance game on the Wii.  It was the perfect Christmas.

After our time in Idaho, we headed down to Utah to see my family.  All Hayden wanted to do in Utah was go to Chuck E Cheese, so that's where we celebrated Nate's 29th birthday.  He's a good Dad, huh!

Happy Birthday Nate!  You are the best thing that ever happened to me! xoxo

We hope this finds you all well.  We are so blessed to start the new year off in our beautiful, snowy mountain home and to have the gospel in our lives.  Here's to a great 2012!
