Christmas Eve started out with a miracle snowfall. I was so excited for a white Christmas this year. The possibility of snow for Christmas is one of my favorite things about living in Utah. After this Christmas Eve snowfall, we had snow on our grass until March.
We spent the evening with all of the Wheeler extended family at Richard & Connie's home. We all brought appetizers and had an appetizer bar for dinner. Then we had the nativity. Ben read from Luke 2 while the kids acted it out.

| CC & Rex were our angels. Rex wasn't too fond of his tinsel halo. |

| Mia was a beautiful Mary. She put the baby Jesus under her shirt on her way to Bethlehem. |
 |
| When CC saw the awesome headwear, she became a wiseman too. |
 |
| Caleb, as Joseph. |
 |
| Mary had some assistance with her delivery. |

Richard shared his testimony & then we all shared a favorite Christmas memory. I really enjoyed hearing everyone's memories. Mostly everyone shared a Christmas memory that had to do with service. When we got home, we let Clara and Rex open their Christmas pajamas. I'm so thankful for my sweet babies and wonderful Ben. I love seeing joy on my children's faces and being able to share this wonderful time of year with my family.
