Tonight was the annual Ropelato Christmas Party. This year the party was held inside Jerry's new business building, White Clouds, in Ogden. It was the perfect venue with lots of space. We had our traditional lasagna with rolls, salads, and doughnuts for dinner. The kids played until it was time to get ready for the Nativity. Darinda has a huge assortment of costumes so everyone can dress up. The adults had great seating while Nate read the Christmas story from Luke 2 and Matthew 2. Soon after we finished with the Nativity-- the kids sang "Santa Clause is coming to town" and then Santa came. Santa always hands out fun Christmas socks to all the kids (no pictures of the socks ;( -- I'll need to take one). We had a great night!

It snowed all day today so it's a two hour late start tomorrow for our girls-- they don't have to be to school until 10:45 a.m.! I was really glad since we were at the party until 10:30 p.m. We love getting together with family!

Really liked all these pleasing pictures of Christmas Eve. Celebrated our holy function at one of the extraordinary event space Atlanta few days back. Simple décor and luncheon were ordered. All were dressed beautifully and cookies with beverages were served from time to time.
