December 18—A Grandma, Some Candy & the Last Name NOEL!

Candy Houses 1Candy HousesCandyGrandma & Miles

So, we headed up to Dave’s parents house to celebrate Christmas today and boy did Grandma show us a great time.  Grandma Mary truly lives up to the last name Noel.  Christmas basically oozes out of the front door to great you.  The living room is filled with Christmas music, a tree laden with homemade ornaments, a Christmas village, Christmas treats, and twinkle lights.  For a kid it is almost as good as Disneyland.

We started the afternoon off by making candy houses, then we played Christmas music on pvc pipe chimes and color coded bells.  We sang a few songs, opened some presents and then Dave and I took off for dinner.  Grandma and Grandpa bundled up the kids and took them to see the lights at the Christmas Village in Ogden.  We came back to some very tired boys that were so glad that Grandma lived up to her last name.

How fun! She is seriously one of the sweetest ladies I know (and a ton of fun at girls' camp. :) )
