Merry Christmas!

This is my last blog post before Christmas Vacation! We fly out tomorrow night, it still seems like days away! blah.

Instead of doing what I should be doing (cleaning and packing), I am going to blog. :)

This week we went to Salt Lake to visit my Great Uncle Jack and then to look at the Christmas lights on Temple Square. The visits with Uncle Jack are always nice, but short. There are so many little things in his house my boys would love to get their crazy little hands on! We like to walk around Temple Square (even though it was FREEZING) and look at all the pretty displays. Avery always gets excited to see the Temple, and I love all the different colored lights. I know it's all basically the same lights/displays each year, but it's so pretty. And I think the boys liked it. They're good at the dead pan looks. My favorite part (besides a detour to the Lion House Pantry for Hot Cocoa...) are the Nativities they have set up. I love this chunky one the boys and I had our picture taken in front of.Then, Tuesday night we celebrated our anniversary a few days early (5 years!!! Wow!). We got some babysitters and went out to dinner and then over to some friends house to play games and eat treats. It was fun, and definitely nice to be able to play a game without pausing every few minutes to take care of kid problems!

Now we're getting ready for our trip, which I already know is going to be crazy. It always is a little bit. :) I'm excited to be with our families for Christmas, I just wish our flight was earlier than tomorrow evening!

the chunky one kind of reminds me of "fat boys."
