Building the first snowman of the season...with Ryan and Kate Pexton (neighbors).
A last minute gift idea from Santa...Payton shows off some fancy moves and some serious ping pong attire at our Christmas night Ping Pong tournament! This tournament started at about 10:45 pm and went until some time after midnight.
Getting ready to bring down his opponent...which happened to be his mother.
Donning the sweats after his victory and Jantsen starts to warm up!
The Thorpe grandkids on Christmas morning. Of course wearing our "Ute" shirts we received from Grandma and Grandpa.
The Thorpe wives also wearing our warm and cozy Ute sweatshirts.
Porter, Brooks, Nick, Gracie and Ryann show off their cute little backsides. "Go Utah!"
A remote that Grandpa can see and might not lose!
The "Card Shuffler" for one with really agile fingers! :)
Sometimes "bad" little boys really do get coal for Christmas! (Riley and Savannah's gifts)
Christmas Day! About 7am, the boys are just about to see what Santa brought!
Christmas Eve at the Fauxes. This is the gift Jay and Shea gave Grandma and Grandpa. We thought is was totally cool and want to make one for ourselves! Always a fun party!!
Playing the Faux Family Christmas Bingo game that Catryna made. Everyone's cards had faces of every member of the family...just in different order! It was a great idea and a fun time for us all.
Greg, Payton and Jantsen wait patiently to open gifts!
All of the "younger" grandkids getting ready to watch the Nativity.
December 20th. Grandma Goe's Christmas party at Rob and Sherston's house. Doesn't Grandma look fantastic! She's 86 here.
A great picture of Mindy, Casey and Jessie.
December 19. Brooks is dressed sharp and ready for his Preschool Christmas program. He sang every song loud and strong! 
This picture was taken towards the end of the program. Notice his hat about to fall off...it had fallen off once and while leaning over to put it back on, got his tie caught between his hat and head making it stretch in front of his face. Notice his shirt untucked...you'd think he had been through a lot more than singing a few songs!
Just about all the kids! (this is 2 four year old classes)
The beginning of December brought the Singles Ward Christmas party/dance. Jantsen, Nick and Brooks had a blast dancing with the cute Sumsion girls!We had a fabulous Christmas this year. We are so grateful for so many blessings!! Especially each other and for our Savior, Jesus Christ.
