Christmas At Sundance

We were able to spend Christmas 2014 with David's family in Sundance, UT. His parents rented this cabin so that we could all stay in one place for the holidays, with the exception of his sister Ginny and her family, since she recently had a baby. They live close by, so they were able to come up a lot!


The inside of the cabin. I loved the big windows with a nice mountainside view.  We were within walking distance of the ski slope. 







It even came with a Christmas tree all decorated!

My favorite part was this shower which is going in my future house!


David had fun trying out this new toy! There was a lot of snow while we were there so it was nice to have.

Aunt Suzanne and her family also happened to rent a cabin in Sundance close by to our cabin! The first night we were there we went over for dinner that his cousin Wendy made. She is such a good cook! We love her food!
Suzannah, David, Jackson, Star and her daughter Scotland.



We played some Christmas songs with these bells 

Trying to follow along so we don't miss our turn!

Our music directors Jackson and Shelby. 


Back at our cabin we had a little too much fun with the whipped cream….

Who doesn't want whipped cream flung into their mouth from across the room?


Getting it on our face…


On Christmas day we made a big lunch and had everyone at our cabin. Here is the younger generation (cousin's kids)

And the whole group! (Minus David's brother Sam and his wife Eve who spent Christmas day with her family.)






We spent Christmas day eating and with family, we didn't even get around to opening presents until that night.

Dave's parents got all of the kids robes with our initials on it. 


On Sunday we went up to Herriman, UT for little Jordan's baby blessing. 




They did the blessing in their house so that more could participate in the circle. A lot of family members were able to come for the gathering at Ginny and Adam's house. 


All the siblings together for the first time in years!













All the Butler grandkids!


Some other fun things we were able to do including snowshoeing, sledding on the side of our cabin and night snowboarding/skiing at Sundance!






It was a great Christmas and fun that we were able to have everyone together!
