Norton Christmas Party 2016 - playing in the snow...........

We had the Norton Party at Chuck and Ann's church in Farmington and it was memorable as always.

The Norton crew got these fun t-shirts for those that are XL.

Cute girls with a smile!

Brinley, Addi, and Stef

Aspen and Shae

Van grabbed some suckers and he was off to enjoy them.....ALONE!

The kids had fun games in each corner of the gym. They loved it 

What......???? We are all here together. So great.

Don't you just love Grandma Norton's rug under our feet?

Look who came to the party with us. Yahoo!

This is the most people we have ever had at the party in a long time.

We took Keri, Kale and family to the Christmas program for Music and the Spoken word at the Conference Center.

It was so fabulous as always. I just love to come to this program in Salt Lake right before Christmas. 

It seems like it just starts the season off right

Breakfast anyone??

Macee and Mylee just crack me up

We gave them Elsa hats with hair and Elsa aprons and frozen books for their #4 birthday in November. How they have grown up

Outing with the Tennis Bunch. Let's eat at Market Street Grill. Yum Yum 

We went to Kurt Bestor in Salt Lake and it was superb......

We always have such a good time together, lots of laughs

Cute Riglee is wishing us all a Merry Chirstmas

Look who just came in for Christmas. Oh, what fun we will have now

Meilia and Kuulei

The Hawaiian Norton's in Hawaii before they come to Utah

Attitude??? You bet. New coats for winter

We had to stop by and tell Grandma Great hello. She was thrilled to see the Hawaiian kids

Look at the elf we found at Grandpa and Grandma's house.

I hope he brings us something great every day until Christmas

Festival of the lights in Spanish Fork - A MUST!

Truck full of kids

Can it get any better than this??? A freezing truck ride to see the lights is very warming

Hot Coco to come later

Playing in the snow at Bell's with the razor

Decorating gingerbread boys is a blast YUM YUM YUM
Eating them is even better

Paislee's school program. She is in the middle. She loves to sing

Best of buddies at the school program

Let's go find some snow in the mountains 

We went up to Aspen Grove in a snow storm and by the next day it was totally snowed in

We wouldn't have been able to get in the next day

We had so fun making snowmen and throwing them at each other

It is almost bigger than Kuulei

King of the Hill - Grandpa

Meilia was not too sure about this cold snow

Get dad hurry

We told her we needed to make snow angels

Kailoa was all over it. What a long leg man

Oh, snow in the face

Put your head down Kuu.

Oh, it felt so good

Grandma has to join in the fun. Kuu is getting the hang of it

Can we get some hot chocolate now?

Snow ball on the head

Very talented

Snow ball in the face

I think she is a snow bunny now

And they think the beach is so fun

We are loving this

Yeah, fun in the mountains with Grandpa and Grandma

New York in December 2016

Chriatmas - 2016 What a sight our house is this year! I think it looks like a gingerbread house

I think this will be my Christmas card for next year

We spent the second week in December in our favorite city. New York City!

Macey's did not disappoint at all. This was a musical show on the outside of the building and to say it was spectacular is a understatement! I understand a guy from Utah actually put this together. Wow!

Of course we had to visit the Big Guy at Trump Tower. You could not believe the policemen in front of the building. Our tax dollars at work. There were all sorts of protestors but I could not show their signs.

We had to go to the Natural Museum and see the beautiful nativity. I could just look at it for hours

This is a must see

Amazement on every side

Campbell's waiting for our taxi to arrive. Yes, we had some rain, but it didn't stop us.

At the production with Josh Groban, we were seated on the stage. It was weird being part of the musical.  It was so fun to see him up front and personal (and see the spit flying out when he sang) I am not sure how I felt about being right there in front. You couldn't even rub your nose or anything else for that matter

The windows in from of the stores are so fun to see. They all have a theme

It is a magical place

We put our hands on the window to see who is naughty and nice......

I guess you can see who is NAUGHTY!!!!!

You just can't believe the detail that goes into these windows

We love this city at Christmas time

We made it to Hamilton, I can't believe it. It is a rap musical and very fun

We had balcony seats that were terrific

We fell in love with the Sarabeth's bakery. We were watching at the window as Sarabeth was raking over a few of her employees. Brent was giving her thumbs up and she stormed out the door to talk to us. She was hilarious. She kept telling us that men just did not listen to her. Great entertainment - even better food

I just wanted to sit down and take a little taste

Grand Central station at its finest. We found some real fun things here to buy

This is always a fun trip for us to take at Christmas time. Love it
