Catching up

I have been a total blog slacker.  I'm working like crazy, running kids around everywhere, and have completely neglected my blog.  Here is a quick recap of our Christmas so I can get my 2016 blog book ordered.

We had our annual Bradley Christmas Eve party at Debbie's house.  She cooked us a delicious prime rib dinner, the kids acted out the nativity scene, and we opened presents.  Christmas was a whirlwind.  We had church at 10:00 am, then headed to Nana and Papa's for Christmas breakfast and then to open presents.  As always the kids were spoiled by Santa, friends, and family.  Susan sent us money for Christmas, so the day after Christmas we took the kids to Logan for a little family adventure.  We went to Hardware Ranch to see the elk, went to a movie, swam in the pool, and Rory, Connor, Derk, and Debbie visited the Crystal hot springs. We even got to stop and see Grandpa Wally and Drake on our way home. Unfortunately I ended up with pneumonia, so I spent most of the trip pretty miserable.  Rory and the kids have assured me that they had a great time, even though I wasn't very much fun.

2016 was a great year with a lot of fun memories made!  We rang in the new year at home; playing games, eating food, having a silly string war, and enjoying each other's company.  I can't think of a better way to ring in the new year than with the people I love the most in this world.
