Merry Christmas!

We defiantley did not have a "white" Christmas here in Riverside, but we did have a fire in the fireplace (okay so it is a gas fireplace--no wood needed).

I made lots of treats for Christmas. I teach Gospel Doctrine in my singles ward and made white chocolate covered popcorn for the class. Here is Grant helping me. The funniest part was watching my nephews and niece watch a popcorn popper. I have an air popper and they had never seen it before. I also made cookies, brownies etc for our traditional family Christmas plates that we give out to other families.

Here are my nephews and niece that live nearby. They came over for presents and dinner. Cambrie was very excited about her new purse that she got from her Dad. Very cute!
