So far we have had a wonderful holiday season. Grandma, Kevin, Megan, Makayla, and Danniqa came for a visit and we had a lot of fun. It is sure nice to be able to have family around for Christmas. We went to Heritage Park for the "Once Upon a Christmas", where we went for a wagon ride, made crafts, visited the shops and houses, saw the model train sets, and ate cinnamon buns and hot chocolate. It was cold but we had a good time!
On Sunday, we went to church for a very nice Christmas program (one of my very favorite Sundays of the year) and then that evening, Christmas arrived early at the Sorenson home in the way of a puppy! The kids were so excited and love her to pieces. She is an eight and a half week old beagle named Nova with a very good temperment and she has quickly made herself a part of the family.
The rest of the week with the cousins consisted of games, playing, cookie decorating, swimming at the wave pool, live Nativity pagent at Heritage Park and gift exchange among the cousins.
Christmas Eve, we had diner with Brad family at our house, a nice roast beef diner and then Christmas morning came. Mexico and the puppy were supposed to be Christmas but some how, the kid still all ended up with lots of presents (oops, my fault). It was a great Christmas and we look forward to a very happy and exciting new year!
