Happy New Year - follow-up on a Merry Christmas

We hope everyone is having a Happy New Year. We had a very great New Year and Merry Christmas. It started with a family home evening with my mother, Grandma Cannon, at her home. We had a larger gathering of 56 family members! It was fun group. Here are some pictures of those who were there. My Mom, Isabel Cannon, and Doug Cannon
Ali and Kollin
Clark, Andrew and Megan (from Miami, Florida)
Grandma Cannon and Don Cannon (from Madison, Wisconsin)
Libby Dibb (from Durham, North Carolina) and Becky Cannon (from Salt Lake City and the University of Utah.)
Scott and Suzanne Morris, (Orem, Utah), Grandma Cannon, and Grant Cannon
Grandma Cannon, Grant Cannon, Sandra Cannon
On Christmas we had a great time at our home with a good family gathering with 23 socks in position.
Suzanne and Scott were with us for Christmas morning and the traditional breakfast.
We had a great Christmas Day.
We had a visit from the Halverson and Brown families.
Alicia got a new doll.
Nathan was happy to be here for his first Christmas.
Sandra as always prepared a great Christmas dinner. Everyone helped to make it a great event.
Holly (from Arizona), Nancy, and John Wellington came by for a visit.
My Mom was able to visit us as well.
We had a marvelous day. The only part missing were the owners of the six socks still left on the mantel after the day was over. We had a great day, but missed, Janae, Rick, Wyatt, Owen, Karen and Brandon, although we enjoyed talking with them via the Internet.
We had a very Merry Christmas and wish everyone a very Happy New Year in 2011.
