Pearson Family Christmas Party . . .

Two of my beautiful angels, Faith and Jessika.

Hi girls, you are looking cute.

McKay was so excited to be Joseph this year. Brynlie was the cutest Mary ever.

Little Ryat was Baby Jesus. How sweet to see Brynlie holding him.

We had a wonderful party with my entire family at my parents house on Sunday, December 18th. We had a delicious ham dinner, with cheesy potatoes, salads and all the trimmings. Natalie then dressed up all the kids in costume and Grandpa and a few others read from the Bible, to re-enact the story of Mary and Joseph. It was the best evening ever, everyone had a great time.

Annual Christmas Party with Friends . . .

Every year I get together with several of my friends, Terri, Norma and Alisa for a friend's Christmas party. This year we met at Norma's apartment and then went to dinner at the Harvest Restaurant at Thanksgiving Point.

We had a wonderful dinner with good company.

We had to wait for about an hour, but we had an enjoyable evening and great time together.

We then went back to Norma's house to open presents. My friends were really generous this year.

We had a great time together. Merry Christmas friends.

Jessika's Wax Museum and McKay's Christmas Program . . .

Jessika was Annie Oakley for her school's wax museum. She really looked the part.

She held really still during the museum.

McKay looked really nice in his red sweater vest before his school Christmas program.

Faith was at school, so I enjoyed going to his school and watch him perform.

McKay is such a sweet boy. Good job.

Ward Christmas Party . . .

I took my kids to the ward Christmas party. Steven wanted to stay home with Faith.

We sat with Dad and Mom and Jeff and Natalie and girls.

It was a breakfast on Saturday morning.

Hi Natalie and Brynlie.

Hi Hallie and Jeff.

We Are Thankful for Our Family . . .

We always love the Macy's Thanksgiving parade.

This year, Steven and I spent a quiet Thanksgiving with just our children. We had a wonderful dinner and then my parents stopped by afterwards and we all played the game Apples to Apples. We have been given so many blessings in our lives and have so many things to be thankful for.

Happy Halloween . . .

All our children on Halloween night. I took McKay and Faith around the ward trick-or-treating and Steven stayed home and passed out candy. Taylor and Jessika went with friends.

McKay was Woody from Toy Story.

Taylor was Wicked Red Riding Hood, but I loved her costume, it was very modest.

Jessika was a Vampira.

Faith was Cinderella.

School Halloween Parade and Class Party . . .

Steven and I went to McKay's Halloween parade at school. Jessika and her class went to Classic Skating so she wasn't in the parade. McKay was Woody from Toy Story.

Hi McKay, you're looking good.

I volunteered to help with McKay's first grade Halloween party. The kids had a lot of fun.

McKay Turns Seven . . .

We sure love our sweet McKay.

McKay loves Hot Wheels.

My Mom had fallen so my parents couldn't come to his party. I took McKay over to their house after his friends party.

McKay loves Toy Story.

Make a good wish. Happy Birthday to our dear son.

McKay's Party with Friends and Cousins . . .

McKay had a wonderful birthday party with his friends and cousins.

Brynlie was the cutest Rapunzel I ever saw.

Natalie with Hallie dressed as a beautiful peacock.

Here are McKay's cute cousins.

McKay and all his friends out on the trampoline. It was a gorgeous day for a birthday party.

Carving Pumpkins for FHE . . .

We had a lot of fun as a family carving pumpkins for Family Home Evening. I also made a yummy cherry cheesecake bar for dessert. Such a fun evening.

Beautiful Fall Colors . . .

This is up in Midway.
