Christmas at the Clark house



This Christmas was a great time for our family. Tasia learned the lessons from the last year and really got into the nativity. She was making her own nativity everywhere, especially in the bath she got creative. This girl amazes me every day with her new inversions.

This Christmas season was also great because my wonderful and the best in the world husband was the cook for the holidays. He cooked huge breakfast when we had Jim's family came over and after that he cooked - our Christmas dinner. It was to die for. Honey glazed ham, sweet potatoes and apples and stuffing. Everything was so good and I did not have to cook it.

We also had my friend Natasha stay with us for Christmas! We knew each other from back home. it was great to have someone to talk Russian to.

This is Tasia and AJ opening some percents on Christmas Eve morning from aunt Carolyn.


Kids have been so good this year that Santa stopped by before making the rounds and gave them some percents on Christmas Eve. They were so excited!

Santa brought some fruit and veggies for AJ to cook

I should have put this picture first, that is a reaction of a one year old to Christmas Morning.



This Santa got happy when he was eating marshmallow peanuts.

At one point of the hassle and bustle of the preparations for Christmas i got a little carried away with frustration. I am glad that we have a family tradition of singing at the retirement home in Lehi, which made my frustrations disappear. There is something about service this season that makes a happy Christmas for everyone.
