Christmas 2011

Matt's parents are always looking for fun things to do with the kids, and they successfully discovered that the Polar Express runs through Branson during Dec. The kids thought it was great!





Hot chocolate and cookies!


and of course SANTA!!


Emma also had her school Christmas concert. I always loved doing performances at school! They were the best.



For an early Christmas present to Emma, Matt surprised her with tickets to see the broadway production of "Beauty and the Beast" at the Fox Theater. To say she was excited wouldn't even begin to describe it!


We haven't been back to Utah for Christmas since we moved 5 years ago! But we decided that this year would be a good time to do it! It was quite the party with all the aunts and uncles and cousins...oh my!!!! Because of the tons of fun there was a huge lack of picture taking!

Not only does the Polar Express run through MO, but it runs through Utah too!!!!



Temple "freezing" Square!



Santa found us clear in Utah!
Dances of sugar plums dancing in their heads...

We took a ride on a horse drawn wagon with a friend of Grandpa Beckstrand. After Lance got back on the wagon after falling off backwards it turned out to be a really nice time!



And all Emma needed for Christmas was her 2 front teeth:)





We took some family pictures while we were all together. They turned out pretty amazing!! It's kind of great to have a professional photo editing genius for your brother-in-law!!
