Bandon

Paul went on his golf trip with his friends Matt Thurmond and Keith Wilson last week. They travelled to Bandon, Oregon so they could play golf "the way it was meant to be played." All had a great time and are anxious to do it again next year.

Chatting with Santa

At the ward Christmas party last night, Matt & Afton got to sit on Santa's lap and tell him what they wanted for Christmas. Although they are very good at letting me know what's on their list, they were a little more reticent with the big guy himself. Good thing Mom knows how to let Santa know what they want!

Gingerbread House

Some families got together for FHE last night to celebrate the season. We told stories, sang carols and decorated gingerbread houses. This is first ever Walker family gingerbread house--we are very proud of our efforts. The kids loved being with their friends to get ready for the Christmas holiday!

Halle smiles

Yes, she now has personality--she's smiling and laughing and responding to us which almost makes getting up in the night worth it!

Sledding

Paul promised the kids he would take them sledding on Saturday. It was all great until a girl took Afton out at the bottom of the hill--then it was time to go home!

Let it Snow...

We had the first huge snowfall of the year--about 12 inches! Matt & Afton couldn't wait to go outside and play, even though it was so cold!
