For Christmas we met Spencer's family in Las Vegas, I know what your thinking but is was really fun. Of course you can't help but have a blast with the Tait family no matter where you are. We went to the M&M factory, chocolate factory and to Sky Mania. We watch the water show and the volcano show and saw the lion exhibit. We played croquet, video games and card games. Cherie, Melinda and I went and saw Mama Mia, which was great. For Christmas we had the kids act out the nativity and Nanna read some stories. Christmas morning was really fun to watch. The kids were so excited. Clay of course didn't really care for anything but the wrapping paper. That night after we put the kids to bed the adults read our Christmas letters to one another, which is always a special part of Christmas for me. We survived through the 24 hour stomach flu, sore throats and coughs, which was all past around. You got to love close families right! It was a wonderful Christmas and it was definitely hard to leave. I miss you guys already.
