Christmas in Michigan

Sorry it has taken me a while to post about Christmas but my Internet keeps on going down. Anyways, its up today so I decided to take advantage of it. I spent Christmas in Michigan for about a week and then came home and saw my good friends Derek and Heidi get sealed in the temple. It was neat this being my first sealing that I had been too. Christmas was really fun though. I got out there to see Mom and Dad a couple of days before everyone else got there. We had such a fun time with them. Here are some pictures and videos from the trip.

We of course did the Christmas story where we all dress up and reenact the story of Christ's birth. We had some crazy costumes and crazy happenings which will be shown hereafter in a video.

NUHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

"LOOK AT ME! I'M AN ANGEL OF THE NIGHT!"
Here's Dad reading being the narrator.
Mom and Kristen taking pictures.
Karen after a long day of traveling to see baby Jesus.

Here's a little taste of what our night was like. We sang Christmas hymns during the narration and Cory really got into it. While watching Cory "fly" across the room, pay attention to two things: Brady's opera voice in the background (and wearing his huge hat) and Blake's laugh as he follows his dad around the room. I call this video The Lord of the Dance II: A Christmas Special.

We went to the zoo and had a great time seeing the animals. Cory seemed to have a way with them. He bonded with some monkeys and with this snow leapord. As you will see, this leapord is very sad and Cory feels for this poor animal locked in the cage. This is hilarious.

Christmas was a great time. I hope everyone had a great holiday season. By the way, Congrats Cory and Kristen on your baby. Let's get that poor girl a name now.
