Well it was another great christmas for the Morgan family. We started our celebration by taking the boys to a close by nieghborhood to see Santa and make sure he knew what Phoenix wanted for Christmas.
Christmas Evewe spent with our great friends Todd and Katie. We decided it would be nice to do some sort of service for christmas, so we took cookies to the nursing home where Byron's mother's God Mother lives and past them out to the residents. We also sang carols for a while. It seemed to bring some smiles and a little joy to the residents. After our visit to the nursing home we went back to our house and ate some delicious potatoe corn chowder out of bread bowls ( thanks again Katie ) and we drank some wassel......for those of you that have never had wassel....make some, it is amazing!!! We finished off the night with caroling with a couple families and hot cocoa at our bishops house.
Christmas morning we got up and opened presents with the boys...Phoenix got a work bench with all the tools, a fisher price town (zion's too) a new suit,and light up socks from the neighbor that he LOVES!!Phoenix also got thre only thing he had asked Santa for......that right you guessed it folks....a Chia Pet! He was soooo excited.
Zion got a fisher price farm, some clothes and also light up socks. Both boys and byron and I got new Pjs thanks to Aunt Katie and Uncle Todd.
Byron surprised me with season passes to all the broadway cross America shows coming to the Bass Cancert Hall!! I am sooo excited. He also got me some new workout clothes.
I bought Byron a new bag to replace the always talked about "MacGuyver Bag" that he has been carr ying around for years.
Josh, Chrissta and the kids came over late morning with prinut in hand ( Yummy!! Thanks Chriss) we hung out, ate a delicious dinner and played lots of fun games on the Wii. We loved having them here.
Sorry we did not get Christmas cards sent out....we are going to send them out with Byron's graduation annoucements in a month or so.

Merry Christmas to all.
What a wonderful time for family to love and renew friendships.
Wish we all could be together but that will have to wait .....for the next life I am sure.
So grateful to have had the Devericks family with us on their way to "Sunny" California. We also had a wonderful time.
It was our pleasure to host the Christmas Eve party (by default) What a great surprise.
We truly did miss The Doug Gunter family however. And at least we have forgiven Uncle Doug for canceling Christmas.LOL
It looks like such a wonderful Christmas. What quality time!
