Temple Lights...

is another family tradition that we really look forward to. Its fun to go and see if there has been any new lights added. This year they added this beautiful star above the nativity scene.

True meaning of Christmas

Sometime before Christmas the Brimhalls get together for dinner then we have a program. The little people dress up as Joseph, Mary, Wisemen, Shepherds and Angels. While one of the teenagers read from the scriptures the younger children reenact the birth of Christ. There have been years we've gone through the story several times since all the little girls want to be Mary. This is a fun family tradition that the kids love and at the same time reminds us all of the True meaning of Christmas!

Big helpers

Gabe had been buggin for about a week to get the lights on the tree so when I finally got around to it the lights I've used for several years had a short. So I went the next day and bought new ones. My kiddos were having fun helping me decorate(or in Kortney's case undecorate) the tree.
