Part One of Christmas Eve at the Olsen's



Last year we were so happy to join the Warner's for Christmas Eve, and this year the Olsen's invited us to join their family tradition. This year the Warner's and Olsen's family have been such a blessing to us. We enjoyed BYU football with the Olsen's, Keith has got to know Mike and Eric through their callings, and I have Leslie and Lynda as good friends.
Not to mention how much Garrett loves his buddy Eric. Although I do worry as Garrett gets bigger, he may do bodily harm to "brother Olsen".

One of the wonderful traditions that the Warner/Olsen families do every Christmas Eve is a talent show. We decided to preform our family's favorite Christmas time story, the Nutcracker with paper puppets provided by Garrett Kindergarten class.
With the seductive voice of Keith was our narrator.
The diverse and skilled Garrett preformed the villainous Mouse King, and handsome Prince.
The talented Kendall as the girl, and the lovely Sugar Plum Princess.
Mom as the boy and the Nutcracker.
We had a bit of a problem always staying below and behind the small ottoman stage, but the show must go on.
