Here Today Gone Tomorrow

Time sure does fly by. It seems like we were just getting ready for Christmas and then it's over. We had a great Christmas as always. We had our Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve with Steve's parents and his sister Jenn and our great, great friends, Bryce and Keri (we joked and said they were my side of the family). We had a Honey Baked Ham, twice baked spuds (yum) and Steve made homemade creamed corn (double yum). Keri brought her incredible homemade rolls and Jenn brought chex mix and muddie buddies. We had a wonderful time playing games and being together. Christmas morning lasted all of 15 minutes. Devynne and Dylan both got new cell phones and Dakota got an XBOX 360 plus other little gifts for all three, Santa was good to them. The kids left around noon to spend the rest of Christmas and the following weekend with their dad. They stayed in a cabin in Cedar City and had a great time. Lots of snow fun for them. Steve and I went for a triple feature (yes, I said triple) at the movies with Steve's parents and Jenn. It was so much fun. We've never done two movies in one day, let alone three. We saw Benjamin Button, Marley and Me and Valkyrie (spelling? not sure), Marley and Me was my favorite however lots of tissue was needed. Steve and I enjoyed our weekend and many times we said "so this is what it's like to not have kids" or "this will be us in a few years". I must admit that I did miss the activity of kids coming and going, though. Anyhoo, I hope you all had a great Christmas and I wish you a very happy new year. :)
