Whenever we are in Utah, it is time for family reunions.
This time wasn’t an exception either. The reunion was held in the basement of
Zions Bank in Payson, and we had a lot of fun. First of all a couple of days before the party the girls helped Oma to bake a lot of
cookies for the reunion. It is our Christmas family tradition to bake candy cane sugar cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve, so we kind of combined it with the
necessity to feed the crowds during the family party.

| Oma didn't have any red coloring, so the girls opted for purple. |
The party started with making Christmas cards for the
disabled veterans (we delivered those together with Mican’s family on Christmas
Eve), and then continued with food and entertainment provided by the kids.
 |
| All gathered for the talent show. |
 |
| Karlie playing Silent Night |
 |
| Samuel performing his piece. |
 |
| Luke was doing a stand-up comedy! He was really funny! His brother Liam played the violin but he didn't want to be seen, so I respected his wishes and didn't take a picture of him. |
 |
| Our crew gave the same concert they gave earlier in the week for the 4th graders, |
 |
| Romance is in the making! Tess doesn't know yet that a little less than a month later she will be engaged to Nate! |
The next day most of us came to Oma’s house after church to play games, watch a
movie and just visit. The cousins had a blast as always, and so did we. The next day was Christmas, and everybody was very excited!
