Christmas Eve with the Mangelson's

One of our favorite family traditions is spending Christmas Eve with Jared's side of the family.  This year I had to work a half day so we didn't get out to Levan as early as we wanted to.  We managed to get out there around 5 and visit with Grandma Myrt.  Then we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Mangelson's house for a potluck dinner and then presents afterwards.  The kids always have so much fun.

Jared's cousin Bruce is on a mission, so Aunt Julie had everyone hold this sign for a picture to send to him.
The kids love playing at Grandma Irene's house because she has so many (old) toys.  Jared said he played with this boat when he was little also.
