I know we are a few weeks into January and I am blogging about Christmas but life in the Wade house has been a little crazy. For instance, Chad is now the 2nd Counselor in Elder's Quorum Presidency, I am 1st Counselor in Relief Society, playing organ, school, meetings, singing in Church (way out of my comfort zone), and the list could go on. Because of all of this, I have slacked on taking pictures so this is all I have to blog about.
We had a great Christmas but the kids definitely missed out on a few of their favorite traditions - like the breakfast, talent show, and nativity (and seeing all of their cousins and Gdma and Gdpa Wade). We did, however, manage to keep a few traditions and throw in a few new ones.

We were told by the kids that we definitely couldn't miss Dancing Around the Christmas Tree.
After sitting on Santa's lap, we changed our clothes and decided to hit the bowling alley (a new thing for us on Christmas Eve). It has been a long time since we have gone and it showed in our bowling skills. Hayden just about beat Chad and I and was on cloud nine. In fact I believe he said this was the best day ever.
We headed back to Gdma and Gdpa Krantz's house for a yummy dinner and the opening of one present before bed. I think Kenzie and Courtney had it figured out and new they were opening PJs but Hayden was surprised and excited.
After getting our new PJs on we read the nativity out of the scriptures, read a Christmas story sent by Grandpa Wade and then wrote letters to Santa and sat out cookies and an orange.
