Lowe's Build and Grow  Saturday December 14th, 10 am, Christmas Train Engine.  Register online, Free!

Tuacahn Christmas in the Canyon  If you want to take a drive up to the St. George area, this looks like a really fun event with a Live Nativity, lights, music, and train ride.  Free admission to stroll the area or $2 per person for the nativity or train ride, $15 max charge per family.

Polar Express Train in Ely, NV If you really feel like taking a trip, you can head up to Ely for their Polar Express train.  It takes about 3-4 hours to get there.  We did this last year and it was really fun (dress WARM).  I've heard the Polar Express train ride in Williams, AZ is amazing but this one is much more affordable and a little closer drive.  If you did an afternoon train ride, you could make it a day trip.

Wherever you go, whatever you do, I hope you are blessed with love, laughter, friends, and family and filled with joy and peace as we celebrate the true meaning of the season, the birth of our Savior.


Our Christmas card from last year!  Can't believe how much the kids have grown!
