Our yearly Christmas meal out as a family

We started a traditon around five years ago to take all the kids and there families out to dinner in Dece to have a nice meal together for the holiday season. This year it was kinda hard as weve getting so much larger every year. We had to change the date twice and of course Hayley is in Hawaii and couldnt make it. Then friday both Jay and Emmalee came down with nasty cold/flu bugs so they couldnt make it and Lucy got stuck in St George on a final she had to do for her class with went on longer then she expected. We decided to go ahead and still do it anyway for the people that could make it as it gets too busy closer to christmas. We were sorry for those that couldnt make it but hopefully next year it will be easier and weve all be able to make it. This year we went to the Texas Roadhouse and we had a wonderful time. Food is always good and it was nice to to be together and joke and enjoy each others company. I think its a nice tradition and hopefully its one we can contine to do regardless of how large we get.

We wasnt ready for this one, thought Ralph wasnt ready yet. lol.
Leland was so funny and on top form for all of us. He got his meal around 15-20 mins before us so was the first to start eating and the last to finish, not because he was slow but he just kept eating and eating. Im sure they wont have to feed him for a month now. lol. Heres him and Dan.
Heres Cory, Leland and Carole. If you look close it looks like Carole was singing!!!!! Maybe she was singing christmas carols. lol.

Yummy! Leland kept hitting the ladys backside behind him, i think Dan was getting worried he would get the blame for it.
It was a wonderful evening. Thanks so much for everyone that came and so sorry to you guys that couldnt. Hopefully next year weve all be there.
