Christmas Day

This was our year to have Grandpa and Grandma Lowry. They slept over and we enjoyed having them with us Christmas morning. The kids slept until 8:00 and then we got up. I went running early because the roads are so quiet. I ran down the middle of Main Street because no one was around. It is very fun and peaceful.

The boys got race cars and they had so much fun racing them around the basement together. Lynnlee started a puzzle, and Sienna had fun playing with her new dolls. We had French toast, bacon, eggs, and hash brown patties for breakfast. Also juice and chocolate milk. Yum! It was a lazy morning. Grandma and Grandpa Lowry left to Cam's after breakfast.

That afternoon we went to Heber for the smorgasbord. I didn't get many pictures but I was fun to be with my parents. We enjoyed the yummy food and quality time together. Changes in health really make me appreciate family time a lot more.

We gave Betsy matching pajamas for Christmas. Also a couple of other fun gifts. 

Christmas Eve and Christmas ended up being a little rough for my dad. He wasn't feeling the best and he hadn't slept well. The doctor told us recovery was a roller coaster and that down days would be normal. Even with knowing that it was hard to see him. Also hard for my mom. She has been a super hero taking care of my dad through all of this. Betsy stayed up there for a few days so I'm glad she could be a support and help too.
