Christmas Traditions

This last Saturday we went on our annual 'Good Old-Fashioned, Dial Family Christmas' excursion up near Brian Head to search for the perfect Christmas trees. (And yes, we remembered the saw...!) This is the 3rd year in a row for us, which is about as traditional as we get! We packed up our hot chocolate and donuts and all the kids, big and little, and headed up for a freezing and fun day in the mountains and snow. Again, this year we couldn't make it all the way up, and nearly slid off the mountain trying to all get turned around, but we made it out okay and all had a fun time.

Sarah- we are staying with my parents for a while while we are looking for a new home. We are currently thinking about building, so it may be a bit longer. Can't believe John is almost done with med school! How awesome. Any idea where you guys will head next?
