Homestead Crater

This was probably the highlight of the trip for everyone except Arthur. The Crater is a big dome of minerals over a 65 feet deep hot spring. The temperature was just right, and the atmosphere was really fun.

Christmas in Utah

We left at 3:30 am to make it to the family Christmas Eve party.

Tractor ride! Arthur loved it.

We got very little snow.

John and I took the two least whiny kids to Temple Square to see the lights.

Usual trip to Murray Park Center

Usual trip to Waffle Love without kids, combined with usual visit with Whitneys.

We took the Prestons to a Grizzlies game.  Everyone over 7 had fun.

Christmas Fun

Work party.

Ward party

 Maggie and I were in a handbell choir for the Christmas program.

Just hanging out at the Spectrum (the kind of random fun we have when we don't have Disneyland passes).

 Gingerbread houses with the neighbors.

Handbell practice

Rock Climb

One of my best friends moved around Christmas.  Four of us went rock climbing to have fun one last time.
