The Nativity

Our church has been putting on "The Festival of the Nativy" for the past couple of years. It is a display of diferent nativities from all over the world.

Here is a snap shot of one of the rooms inside. It is just beautiful.

This is our families Nativity on Display. My Mother-In-Law gave it to us. It is a  Nativity Village Set.

It is really pretty but they always make it look even more amazing.

Check out the website if you would like to visit it next year. It is FREE and open to the public.

And a Happy Thanksgiving to you too!

I can't believe I forgot to take pictures this year of Thanksgiving. I guess I was having such a good time with family and friends I totally forgot. This year we had special friends all the way from Canada, Marti and Dave. We just love them!

We are so grateful for such good people in our lives. The Lord has truly surrounded our family with  so many people who love us. We know they love us not only by the words they speak but by the actions they show. Our family is also blessed by having the gospel in our lives. Our hearts are over filled with the love we share for the gospel and our Savior, Jesus Christ.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Camping a Disney

The kids got a full week off of school for the Thanksgiving holiday. One of the activities we did to make the time with each other extra special was camping at Disney.

We went with some of our favorite people...The Hunter Family. While we were there we enjoyed this awesome pool...

Here we are burning our sticks to get the ready for some good ol' marshmellows! YUMMY!

By the looks of this picture, you would think we slept on top of the car. he he he he!

 Here are a couple of our "Country Condo's"...

 Here is Justin getting the fire ready...

We took the golf cart and drove it everywhere. We also went to the night time sign along. I wish I would have remembered to take more pictures.

We had a great time but I will say, the older I get the more I enjoy my own bed. :)
