Dinner...
Kenneth and I decorated the tables and we were pretty dang proud of them so I took pictures. :-)

Back of the card. (It was the scripture that we read for the 5th night of Hanukkah before lighting the candles.)

Nativity Play
It's that time of year when all the kids are doing their holiday plays, and I have lots of neices and nephews so I've been going to all of theirs. I missed taking pictures of two of the plays because I was holding Aidan and not in a good place to take photos, but I did get some of the Nativity play that the kids did during our Candlelight service.
Jenna cracked me up while they were singing. (She's the wayward angel there in the back)
The Angels
The Shepherds and Mary over there on the left.
King Herod and the wise men
After the play and candlelight service we have a dessert potluck and refreshments and we had a LOT of people show up for the service and the refreshments. It was a lot of fun!

First Night of Hanukkah
Tonight was the first night of Hanukkah
So we got together and lit the "servant candle" first. (the one in the middle)
Then the candle on the far right was lit to signify the first night, the other seven candles will be lit over the next seven days.
We do this in remembrance of the Macabees restoring the temple 3 years after it was destroyed, and to remember that Yeshua is the light of the world. (Short summary) :-)

Ahhh...it's Wednesday.
Not that that really means anything....just a little bit closer to the weekend. Cary is still trying to get everything resolved on our van and the insurance stuff, yada, yada.....I'm very grateful that he takes care of all that stuff. :-) I still haven't heard anything back on any of my tests from going to the doctor and hospital last week, so I'm going on the assumption that no news is good news.
Last Sunday some of us ladies got together for a night on the town (ha, ha). Melanie, Heather (Crouch), Erin, Sydney, Susan (Faber), and one of Melanie's friends named Julie, and myself all went out to eat while Cary and Aidan went and hung out with Dan, Ethan, Sam and Jesse (Hansen) . (He had stopped by to chat) Anyway, good times were had by all and I got the red meat that I've been craving. (Although I could use a big, fat, juicy steak right about now.)
Cary gets a week and half off of work here soon so we'll be leaving to spend time with family and I think we're all looking forward to that. Cary is taking Aidan and I this weekend and then he has to come back and work for TWO days before taking his break. I guess I really shouldn't complain since he is getting alot of time off. :-) Hee.
That's it for now.

Crazy Graduation Day
We headed for Logan dark and early in the morning and it was already starting to look like this....
Mostly all of us were worried about getting through Sardine canyon okay... We let mom and dad blaze the trail in front of us...wasn't that nice of us? :-)
We all managed to make it through the canyon and then while driving through Wellsville the wind was blowing snow all over so visibility was very bad, and all the sudden there was a stop light and a line a cars...Cary tried to stop but we just kept sliding and slid right into the back of an Explorer. Yay! That made our day.
Luckily, the damage is pretty minimal to both vehicles since we were going so slow to start with.
However, since we had to sit around and wait for the police to file a report, yada yada, that meant we missed the first part of the graduation, which means that we missed watching Ken and Abby walk. Nice.
Chandra, Dad, Kenneth, Mom, David
Aidan trying on the cap.

Thankfully the rest of the day was rather uneventful...
Back at the homestead, "admiring" the snow.

A rare occurance.
It seems like it gets harder and harder these days to get a family picture...like, one that ALL of us are in. :-) Sharon took this last weekend so I stole it, even though I look like a dork.
Tomorrow Ken is graduating from USU and we're all planning on driving up to Logan for the ceremony. Problem is, there is a blizzard that is supposed to be hitting tomorrow morning while we're supposed to be driving up there so I guess we'll see what happens.
I had my heart echo today and I won't know the results until probably Tuesday. However, the ultrasound tech kept asking why I was getting one done while she was looking at my heart, sooooo I'm guessing that's probably a good sign. :-)
