Christmas Day Pictures and family togetherness!

Debbie loving the Christmas tree.

Handsome Dallen giving me a pose by the tree!


Oh! What a cute couple. Can you believe it! We have been married for 31 fabulous years on Dec. 5th.





A bit blurry, but these little gals are so sweet and adorable.







Oh Christmas Tree!










Dallen opening christmas gifts and he is a happy boy! You can't really tell from his face.










Lyndon's new slippers.














Just getting ready to opena present. I wrapped it myself and so I knew it was a book. Hee! Hee!















On Dec. 10th we had a christmas party and played this fun game of ring the antlers on Rudolph. The kids had fun being Rudolph as you can see here with Chloe being Rudolph. It was a fun party. We held it up at Todd's. He has a nice home and we had a great time together.
















Here is the Three Musketeer's, meaning the three that are all still at home, Dallen, Me and Lyndon. Pretty funny!



















Ashley and Jed on Christmas day.





















Shane and Erin on Christmas day.























Me in my apron posing for a picture. The kids told me I neede to take it off. I like it. It is a nice apron and keeps me from spilling on myself when cooking. I am holding a gift from Lyndon. He bought me the series from BBC, "Larkrise to Candleford". I love this series and could watch it over and over.




























Todd and Megan gave me new Nike tennis shoes. I love them and they are really comfortble.



























Lyndon received from Todd and Megan some items for 72 hr kits. Handwarmers ect.





























Josie tearing open her present.
































Emma loving her gift from Grandpa and Grandma.
































Delphia received a game from us and she wasn't really excited about it, because Ruby and Emma got Disney princess stuff from us. Oh well, I just bought what her mom suggested. I think she will like it when she plays with her parents.



































Chloe opening her gift of nail polish, earrings, bubble bath and a bath fizz ball.





































Ruby opening her Disney princess gift from us.







































Last, but not least is Grandma (me) of course. Smiling because Christmas is over and now I can get excited for the new year and all that is coming with it!









































Just a few pics from our family Christmas party on Dec. 10th

We played a game of ring the reindeer. We had a lot of fun! We had the party at Todd and Megan's home and we played this game in their basement. The kids loved it as you can see little Delphia sitting with her Rudolph nose and antlers awaiting someone to ring one of her antlers. Pretty funny!

Little Josie is trying to toss a ring at Delphia. None of the grandkids did real well, but they sure had fun, especially when they got to be Rudolph.



Here is Ruby patiently waiting for someone to make a ringer.





The funniest Rudolph was Lyndon. It was hilarious to see him with the nose and antlers. The grandkids got a kick out of it. We had a nice evening together as always!







I snapped a picture of Josie in her car seat one day. I couldn't get a smile out of her though. She is still a little cutie!

Apostles of the Lord

Neil L. Anderson

L. Tom Perry


These great men are Apostle's of the Lord Jesus Christ. We had the priviledge of having them come to our stake to teach in the 3rd Ward of the Crescent North Stake. Lyndon invited me to attend the sacrament meeting that they were speaking in. It was so marvelous and I felt the spirit so strongly. They talked of Christ, they preached of Christ and gave us a charge to teach about the Savior in our homes, to our children and make sure that they gain a testimony of him and to know that he lives! He lives! This I know and hope that all of my own children know that he lives and loves each of them and all of his children. I have set a goal to read about the Savior this month each day. To read about his life from the New Testament and the Book of Mormon. I am grateful for the opportunity and the end of the meeting to get to shake hands with these wonderful men. After the meeting they asked all priesthood ages 12 on up to meet in the Relief Society room and these men from this ward, including my husband were taught at the feet of Prophets, for two hours. Lyndon said afterwards that the meeting was wonderful and very instructive to the priesthood brethren and he took several pages of notes. I wished I could have been a fly on the wall and could have heard what was taught. We are so blessed to have the gospel in our lives. So blessed to have many temples in our midst and I am so grateful that Lyndon and I go almost weekly to attend the temple. It is a blessing in my life! I pray that this Christmas Season that each of my children will remember the Savior and all that he has done for them and each of us. I love the Savior and know that he lives and loves each and everyone of us.

I love my family! They are everything to me! That is what this life is all about is being and doing things with our families. It has been a tremendous day and I have truly felt the spirit as I attended my own meetings. I substituted in primary today and taught the sunbeams. They are sweet little children and so special in the eyes of our Heavenly Father. It was a blessing to teach them today. Life is good and I am thankful for this Christmas Season. A time to reflect on all of our blessings of the past year and remember from whom all blessings come. I hope all who read this will feel gratitude in their hearts for all that they have been blessed with.

Birthday Shoes!

This is my cute grandson...Eli Romig!


This is my darling little grand-daughter...Emma Romig!




This is my sweet and precious grand-daughter...Ruby Romig!




Yesterday I drove out to Eagle Mountain to spend the day with Ashley, Ruby, Emma and Eli. Emma just recently had a birthday on November 27th. She is now 4 years old. Ruby will having her birthday on December 7th and she will then be 6 years old. My how fast they grow! I wanted to do something for their birthdays and so I took them all to lunch at the McDonald's in Saratoga Springs. It was the place the girls chose to go. They got happy meals and were totally delighted. Ashley and I got a sandwich and enjoyed visiting together with the girls. Eli was really good too. He wanted to get down and wander. He just has a hard time sitting very long. Ashley had fed him lunch before we went and so he wasn't really hungry.




We then packed up in the car and headed to Lehi. We went to target to buy the girls birthday shoes. Ruby saw a pair of cute Hello Kitty shoes and loved them, but we decided they were not really practical for winter and a bit flimsey. She settled on a nice sturdy pair of cute gray and pink tennis shoes. They looked really cute on her. Then for Emma we looked for dress shoes and she found a cute pair of sparkly Hello Kitty shoes. They were really darling on her. We then bought socks and tights for them. I think the girls were really excited and tickled. I also have some disney dolls on order for them. I hope they will be here for Ruby's birthday. We had a fun day together. The time seemed to go by really fast, but we all had a great time. We then came back to Ashley's and I played part of a game with Ruby and Emma. We played a toy story matching game. I then had to head home because I needed to get dinner and then had YW sports night at 5:45. It was a fun day and I sure love my sweet little grand-children. They are such a blessing to their grandpa and myself.
