It snowed fast and furious so we had to shorten our Christmas Eve program. Santa came right after we sang 'Happy Birthday' to Thomas. We shoveled the snow and Christensens, Conleys and Fords left in the blizzard.
Our chime choir didn't get a chance to perform but we enjoyed the rehearsal.

2007-12-20 This is the Place Heritage Park
Despite the snow we had a great time at the Heritage Park Christmas village after our pizza and pumpkin pie dinner at Melissa's ward. We walked around in the snow throwing snowballs. We visited Father Christmas, The Gardiner home where their 10 children were out and about, danced around a Christmas tree, made crafts, saw a puppet show, bought penny candy.

2007-12-19 Will's Christmas program
Will sang with gusto at Miss Molly's Christmas program in University Mall in Orem. The mall was packed with parents, grandparents, siblings. Santa came for a visit. One of the songs was 'Santa is too fat for the chimney' and this might be true.Sarah wouldn't have much to do with Santa. We attended Abby's Christmas dance recital last night, but I forgot to put my camera battery back, so no photos.

2007-12-13 Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert
We won the lottery and received tickets to the concert. Mindy, Coray, Jonathan, Abby, Melissa, Michael, Thomas, Joshua, Benjamin, Grandma, Grandpa and Corinne were able to attend and sit together if you can believe it. The program was wonderful with the highlight being a Mack Wilberg arrangement of the Twelve Days of Christmas with the stage full of lords a-leaping, maids a-milking, geese a-laying, etc.

Anna was brave to sit on Santa's lap.
Andrew lost a tooth and some sleep worrying about the Tooth Fairy.

2007-11-24 President McKittrick passed away
Trent David McKittrick returned to his heavenly home surrounded by loving family on Saturday, Nov. 24, 2007.
Trent was born of goodly parents Gwen D. and Mildred Kirch McKittrick on April 25, 1950, in Columbus. One of Trent's most endearing qualities was his love for family, especially spending time with his grandchildren.
Trent had passion and zeal for life, with enthusiasm for skiing, hiking, outdoor activities, his horses, the sciences, learning, knowledge and a deep appreciation and understanding of Jesus Christ. His amazing spirit, gentle manner and deep concern for others touched the lives of everyone he came in contact with.
His love, faith and dedication to the Savior brought him to serve two full-time missions for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The first mission was served in Geneva, Switzerland, and the other in 1993 with his wife and children as Mission President in the Canada Montreal mission.
Trent was an accomplished man with a vast background. He graduated with honors from Palmer College of Chiropractic, served in the United States Marine Corps, skydived, ran two marathons, was captain of the high school football team, sang in a dance band, snow skied the Big Sky Le Couloir at the age of 50, was an amazing Scoutmaster known for his famous Dutch oven cooking, and was a veracious reader. He will be remembered for his kindness, gratitude, integrity and great work ethic.
Trent is survived by his eternal companion, Donna; his three loving daughters, Tana (Matt), Breanne (David) and Wynn (Tim); grandchildren Grace, McCade, Bella, Gage and Chayce Lynn; his mother Mildred; brothers, Dan and Chad. Trent is preceded in passing by his father, Gwen and son, Chase.
His funeral service will be held at 10 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 29, at the LDS Chapel located at 2929 Belvedere, Billings (across from Will James Junior High). Following the funeral, the burial will be in Nye Cemetery. Visitation will be Wednesday, Nov. 28, from 6 to 8 p.m., at the Dahl Funeral Chapel, 10 Yellowstone Ave., Billings.
Memorials may be made to The Trent McKittrick Memorial Fund at First Interstate Bank; LDS Humanitarian or Perpetual Education Fund, 15 E. South Temple, Salt Lake City, UT 84150.

2007-11-24 BYU beats Utah
Coray and Mindy invited me to attend the Utah-BYU game using one of Coray's dad's tickets. Coray and I enjoyed the back row of the east side of the stadium where Coray could stand up to ease the tension in his back. I thought that Utah would pull off the upset when BYU had a miracle play to keep them in the game and set up the winning touchdown. This picture shows the celestial intervention that BYU enjoyed.
