Big Events!

Candy Trains are a Christmas tradition at our house so on Friday night, we all got together at Grandma Mackey's and made our annual candy trains! We had a lot of fun and laughter! This train is Savannah's masterpiece. All the kids made their own (even Brennon!)! It was a good time!

Of course the highlight of this Christmas season is having Grandma and Grandpa Olsen at our house! I don't think they are enjoying our Minnesota weather much, but we are LOVING having them here! We are sooo lucky to have such wonderful family!

Cheese!! Jessi took this picture...and I thought she did a great job! We are glad to have our Grandma here to snuggle with!

Savannah got baptized on Saturday! It snowed ALL day, we weren't sure anyone would make it to the baptism, but we had a great turn out, the program was special, and Savannah was sooo happy! It was a great day! Savannah said "This is my best day ever!"

Nathan got blessed on Sunday! Once again, we weren't sure if we'd have church or not...it was very cold and 2 out of the 4 wards were cancelled (wimps!)! But lucky for us, we had church and we were able to bless Nathan Owen Olsen! Brennon definitely threatened right before the blessing to change his name to Nathan Dueteronomy Danger Owen Olsen, but luckily (for him!) he resisted the temptation! Nathan definitely had a bad hair day going on! We put a hat on him to keep his head warm and then when we took it off, his hair stood straight up! Oh well! He still looked handsome!

And...Torrey graduated from Nursing School! Yeah! It has been a busy but fun week!
