I couldn't believe we pulled off this surprise! I thought for sure the girls would catch on to some of the things we did to make it a surprise. In the first few pictures you can see we put the clues in the balloons and they had to pop them to get it. I can't believe we forgot what a nightmare popping the balloons would be to Lindsey. It was so funny watching Brit pop the balloons and Lindsey holding her ears. We had a video but somehow it got deleted. Oh well. The weather was beautiful and we really had a wonderful relaxing vacation. We were so relaxed that we were all in bed by 9:00 every night. I tried to get a picture of the clock time but it didn't show up. Anyway, we may not have had a "White Christmas" in the snow but we loved our "White" Christmas at the beach.

Christmas in the Bahamas
We gave the girls their "Pre-Christmas" gift on Christmas Eve morning. I laughed and laughed at the whole scenerio with the popping balloons and both of them trying to figure out the clues. It's probably not as funny to you but Dad and I got a kick out of watching them.

UVU Here She Comes!
I know this so late but I still wanted to dedicate this blog to Brittany. Congratulations on your Scholarship with UVU and all your hard work to accomplish that. I know you've sacrificed your time with friends because of practice and it wasn't always fun playing in Houston and carrying your bag 18 holes during the hot humid 100 degree summer heat. You've developed a beautiful golf swing which I know I've heard many golfers say. It's been a great test of patience, concentration and endurance not to mention a life long talent you now have. Later in life you will be able to look back on your time you've spent with Dad and Pom Pom on the golf course as treasured memories and a choice time to bond. I remember first, it was a challenge to make 18 holes, then a challenge to break 100, after that to try and beat Pom Pom and ultimately beat your Dad. Now that beating your Dad is common I'm sure you have your sight on something else. Remember to always keep making goals in everything you do and the lessons you have already learned through making goals will continue to help you. I know Utah with your brothers and sisters is where you want to be and it was so fun to have everyone there to watch you sign after all those years you watched them with their extracirricular activities! We love you!
