Aunt Glynis is an AWESOME drummer

Every year my dad's family holds a Gentry Super Family Home Evening before Christmas. We have great food, we sing Christmas songs, Pam recites the Christmas story from the book of Luke, Aunt Doris reads "Twas the Night Before Christmas," We get into groups and see who can scream their assigned Twelve days of Christmas the loudest, Aunt Glynis and Aunt Gayle play "Wipe-Out" on the piano and drums, and we get to see friends and family. When I was younger I looked forward to this night as much as I looked forward to Christmas. We would always play kick-the-cans or capture-the flag when it got dark. Peyton gets so excited and wants to know if we are going to make it to Florida in time for the Family Home Evening. Unfortunately this year, Peyton didn't make it, because he came later with Tyler. This year was fun and Brynn and Landen both sang in the microphone and Landen didn't want to give it up, he cried when we made him sit down. :)
