I came across a photo archive on CD that we keep in our fireproof box and started rummaging through all the photos and there are TONS. I decided it was time to start embarrassing my teenage girls by posting some of these pics from time to time. Also there are pics of some of the other kids in the family that I came across.. Check it out.

The Lewis Family Christmas CD

This year, in lieu of spending $$ on gifts, we took the time to sit down and record a few christmas ditties on CD and pass out to the family as a keepsake. For those who received one, we hope you enjoyed it. If you would like a copy of the CD please feel free to ask. I have (and can make) as many as needed.

The songs that actually made the CD were; Nuttin' For Christmas sung by Matt (it's so bad that it's too cute not to listen to), Grandma Got Run Over sung by Matt, Michelle and me (as grandpa), Santa Baby sung by Michelle. I decided I wanted to do my own version of Santa Baby so I added that (you can hear Michelle's vocal on that version too) and i sang my sappy version of Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas. And you will find a reading of Twas The Night from Matthew. I think he sounds a lot like Linus from Charlie Brown... you be the judge.

Ciralight Xmas Party!!

Ciralight held their annual Christmas party (2nd one since I've been onboard) and it was a blast. Jacque talked me into bringing my keyboard and maybe playing a tune or two... With the help of her sister Diana Lee, Rex, Earl and Jacque too we had fun singing back and forth and the crowd was very supportive :)

We sang a few christmas songs like, Santa Baby, The Christmas Song, Jingle Bell Rock, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus, and I even attempted to belt out Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, with the help of Rex.

Earl and Julie hosted the party and they have an absolutely beautiful house. We appreciate their hospitality.

Matt and I practiced a little christmas ditty but didn't get the chance to show it off. So we'll save that for the Xmas CD this year. :)

Tubing in Park City

The joke is that I don't ski because my body doesn't like being thrown down hills at high velocities, therefor... I TUBE.

Michelle and I took the kids to the local Gorgoza Tubing Park for a couple hours on Sunday. And we had a blast. This is a much slower pace resort with lifts that drag you and your tube up the hill. At the top, you can fly solo or lash all your buddies tubes together and go flying down as one big screaming mass of flesh. :)

If you've never been... do it...

Winter in Utah

Well after being here for almost a year, I knew Park City gets a lot of snow. This past weekend proves it.

2.5 FEET!!

Spent the weekend shoveling the driveway a number of times. Might be time to breakdown and get a snow blower for sure. It's not even winter yet. The ski resorts are in full swing all around the area with all the snow.

We're planning on visiting the Tubing Park just down the road and spend a couple hours sliding down the hills without breaking any bones. :)
