OH WHAT FUN IT WAS TO SEE EVERYONE!!!
WELL WE DID IT, WE SPENT THE PAST FIVE DAYS VISITING FAMILY AND SHOPPING,EATING,SEEING LIGHTS, SWIMMING,SHOPPING SOME MORE AND ABOUT GOING CRAZY IN UTAH!! I WAS SO GLAD TO GET AWAY FROM ALL THAT CITY CLUTTER AND CRAZINESS!! ANYWAY, THIS IS OUR TRIP IN A NUTSHELL, WE STARTED OFF ON WED. NIGHT AFTER CHEROKEE GOT OUT OF WORK, THE KIDS AND ME WENT TO LOGAN AND ARRIVED AT ABOUT 11P.M. AT VIC'S TO SPEND THE NIGHT AND SOME TIME WITH HER AND ELLIE. I THINK CASH PROBABLY DROVE VIC NUTS WITH ALL HIS CHATTERING. I THINK HE MIGHT OF HAD A LITTLE TO MUCH SUGAR ON THE WAY!! WE WOKE AND VIC MADE US YUMMMY WAFFLES AND HOT COCOA, WE GOT READY AND HEADED TO DEBBIE AND JACK'S. VICKY'S TREE WAS VERY PRETTY, CASH SAID IT WAS BEAUTIFUL, SHE HAD IT DONE IN SILVER AND PLUM, IT LOOKED REALLY PRETTY SHINNING AT NIGHT.
TO THE JOHNSON HOUSE TO SAY HI AND GOOD-BYE TO JACK WHO WAS HEADED TO WORK, I HAD A NICE LITTLE LAUGH AT DEBBIE, SHE HAD ELECTRIC CURLERS IN HER HAIR WHEN I ARRIVED, I DIDN'T KNOW THEY STILL MADE THOSE THINGS!! DEBBIE HAD GOODIES ALL OVER HER HOUSE WITH CHRISTMAS IN EVERY CORNER, IT REMINDED ME OF A GINGERBREAD HOUSE!! WE HAD A NICE VISIT WITH DEBBIE AND CORY AND A NICE LUNCH WITH THEM. HER TREE WAS LIKE A OLD FASHIONED CHRISTMAS TREE, SHE EVEN HAD THE CHARLIE BROWN GANG ON IT!! HER AND JACK HAVE BEEN SINGING CHRISTMAS SONGS AT NIGHT TO EACH OTHER-PRETTY ROMANTIC!!!
TO CONTESSA AND LORIN'S HOUSE WE GO!! I LEFT DEBBIE AND JACK'S AROUND NOON, PICKED UP MARTY IN BOUNTIFUL AND HEADED TO UTAH COUNTY-YIKES!! IT WAS A MAD HOUSE AROUND THAT AREA, WE DID STOP AT IKEA, CHEVY AND CHEROKEE THOUGHT IT WAS THE COOLEST STORE EVER!! I GOT THAT ANXIETY FEELING IN THERE AND MARTY JUST HAD FUN CHASING CASH EVERYWHERE!! WE WENT OUT TO DINNER WITH MARTY'S MOM AND RANDY, JOHN AND KATHY, THERE IS A REALLY COOL PIZZA PLACE IN PROVO THAT WE ATE AT, IT WAS NICE TO SEE THEM AND ENJOY THERE COMPANY. CASH LOVED ALL THEIR CATS, HE CHASED THEM ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
WE WENT SWIMMING THAT NIGHT, BUT IT WAS PRETTY COLD, SO WE BASICALLY JUST TALKED AND GOOFED AROUND. WE WENT TO THE HOWLETT HOUSE ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON, SHAWNA GOT A GREAT CHRISTMAS GIFT EARLY, JUSTIN CAME HOME AND SURPRISED HER, I THINK THAT MADE HER WEEK!!! THEY STILL HAVE THEIR HORSES, BUT THEY ARE PRETTY OBEDIENT, SO IT'S NOT LIKE YOUR IN A BARN, JUST A FRONT ROOM WITH HORSES HA-HA!! WE GOT TO VISIT WITH SPENCER AND SAM TO, IT WAS NICE TO SEE HOW THE HOWLETT BOYS HAVE GROWN INTO FINE YOUNG MEN-YOU TO SAM HA-HA!! SHAWNA OF COURSE SPOILED CASH WITH A FARM ANIMAL SET, HE LOVES THE PIGS AND HE CAN STILL GET HER NAME RIGHT. FRIDAY WE SPENT THE DAY SHOPPING AND GOING TO SOME OF OUR FAVORITE PLACES, I GOT TO SPEND ABOUT FOUR HOURS FRIDAY NIGHT WITH MY GIRLS SHOPPING AND GIGGLING. IT WAS SO FUN TO JUST BE WITH THEM AND WATCH THEM, THEY HAVE BOTH CHANGED SO MUCH AND IT WAS FUN TO LISTEN TO THEM. CONTESSA TOOK HER SIBLINGS TO HER HOUSE FOR PIZZA SO THAT MARTY AND ME COULD GO OUT TO "MI RANCHITO," THAT IS ONE THING I MISS ABOUT UTAH!! CONTESSA DID HER TREE IN SOME DISNEY ORNAMENTS, IT IS A LITTLE TREE, BUT JUST RIGHT FOR THEM.SATURDAY WE WENT TO GARDNERS VILLAGE AND WALKED ALL OVER AND TOOK PICTURES, THEN WE WENT TO THE GATEWAY AND SHOPPED A LITTLE, THEN IT TURNED COLD SO WE LEFT AND WENT TO CROWN BURGER FOR DINNER, IT WAS YUMMY!! WE THEN WENT TO TEMPLE SQUARE, THEY DON'T HAVE AS MANY LIGHTS AS THEY USE TO, BUT IT WAS STILL REALLY PRETTY. WE TOOK LORIN TO THE JOSEPH SMITH BUILDING UP TO THE TENTH FLOOR, THAT WAS WAY COOL FOR THEM, THE REFLECTION POND ON THE SQUARE WAS AMAZING. AFTER TEMPLE SQUARE WE HEADED TO WENDY AND NORM'S, THE FOG WAS REALLY BAD THAT NIGHT, AND I GOT A LITTLE NERVOUS DRIVING, BUT WE MADE IT.WE STAYED AT THE HOWELL'S OVERNIGHT, WENDY OF COURSE HAD HERE HOUSE ALL COZY AND WARM!!! CASH SAID HER HOUSE WAS BEAUTIFUL, NORM MADE US A NICE BREAKFAST SUNDAY MORNING AND WE HAD A NICE GAME OF HAND AND FOOT!! WENDY HAD TO UNWRAP SOME PRESENTS TO SHOW ME, THAT SHE HAD MADE, SHE DOES A AWESOME JOB ON JEWLERY!! CASH LOVED ALL HER TOYS AND EVEN CONIVED HER OUT OF A GOLF SET-THE LITTLE WEASEL!! WENDY AND NORM HAD THEIR TREE DONE IN REDS, IT GLOWED REALLY PRETTY AT NIGHT AND DURING THE DAY!! HER PUPPIES ARE DOING WELL AND ACTIVE!!
CHEROKEE GOT SICK AT THE HOWELL'S AND SO WE THOUGHT WE BETTER GET ON THE WAY TO THE ROBERTSON HOUSE BEFORE SHE GOT WORSE!! WE GOT TO JOIN IN ON THE ROBERTSON FAMILY PARTY, IT WAS SO MUCH FUN TO SEE THEIR FAMILIES AND WATCH THEM INTERACT TOGETHER. BECKY MAKES CHRISTMAS FUN, SHE DECORATES BIG-MEANING HER TREE WAS REALLY TALL, SHE MADE YUMMY GRANDMA CAMPBELL CHICKEN NOODLES, IT MADE ME WANT TO CRY, IT BROUGHT BACK A LOT OF MEMORIES!! THE ROBERTSON GRANDKIDS PUT ON A NATIVITY AND GRANDPA PAUL READ THE CHRISTMAS STORY, IT WAS FUN PLAYING GAMES WITH THEM AND WATCHING THEM OPEN THEIR PRESENTS FROM EACH OTHER. THEY HAVE TALENT IN THAT FAMILY, THEY DID HOMEMADE GIFTS AND WOW I WAS AMAZED AT WHAT THEY CAME UP WITH!! BECKY AND PAUL HAD SNOWFLAKES ON THEIR TREE WITH PRETTY BULBS, IT WENT TO THE TOP OF THEIR STAIRCASE!!! THEY WERE VERY GRACIOUS HOSTS TO LET US BE A PART OF THEIR FAMILY!! AFTER A LONG WEEK WE HEADED HOME, OUR BEDS FELT WONDERFUL AND CASH EVEN SLEPT THRU THE NIGHT-I BELIEVE IN MIRACLES!!! THANK YOU ALL FOR LETTING US COME INTO YOUR HOMES AND FOR SHARING YOUR HEARTS AND FAMILIES WITH OUR FAMILY. THANK YOU FOR THE GIFTS AND FOOD, BEDS AND FOR BEING A PART OF OUR LIVES. WE LOVE YOU ALL AND HOPE YOUR WEEK IS FILLED WITH LOVE AND LAUGHTER AND THE PEACE OF OUR SAVIOR. LOVE, CHERISE, MARTY, CHEROKEE, CASH, CHEVY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
