Moments in Logan

Between all of our moments of celebration, we had smaller, quieter activities.  My favorite was when we were able to go to the Utah Theater and watch a showing of "It's a Wonderful Life." I've never watched it in a theater with popcorn before and it made the whole experience even sweeter.  It was long for my kids, I've never had them sit down to watch it with me, but let's consider it a cultural experience.  The theater even made it snow during the final scenes!  Daxton fell asleep towards the end, but that's better than being grumpy and awake.

Sam was generous enough to share one of his Christmas gifts with us.  The kids put together their own balsam board animals.  It was a learning experience, but kept all of the kids entertained for a couple of hours!  Miracle!

My mom got a fun craft kit for the kids to work on.  They were each able to make a silly monster face.  It was fun to see their personalities in each of their creations. 

The snow finally came!  McKenzie and Faye were so excited that they went outside and danced in the wet, falling snow.  

Teaching Moki how to play tag with these crazy hooligans.

Grandma helping Daxton put together his new puzzle from Grandma Stratford.  It's a great puzzle that is just challenging enough to keep him engaged, but not so hard he can't do it.  I'm grateful to add a puzzle like that to our collection.

I think these kids played hard while we were gone.  Cambrie and Moki slept most of the long drive home.  Can't complain about that too much.
