This December we...

have played in the snow. We got dumped on for a few days straight much to the kids' delight. They were more than happy to go out with me and try to shovel the driveway.We attempted to make a gingerbread house for family night. Chad and I couldn't get the walls to hold so we moved on to plan B and let the kids decorate the pieces of the house. They seemed perfectly fine with that and so were we.We attended the first official Christmas party of the year, our ward's Christmas party. The boys were eager to tell Santa what they wanted, Emmi had a moment of doubt.We took the kids to Temple Square via Trax and to their favorite place, the Church History Museum. We headed right to the children's exhibit and it happily entertained the kids for most of the night. We ended the night by going out to dinner. This will have to be a family tradition.Last but not least, Sam, Emmi and I went to see Keaton in his school's Christmas music program. I taped them singing "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Deer", but I am having technical difficulties and it is not wanting to upload... sorry about that.

It has been such a fun month, with still much partying and fun things still ahead. Bring on the holiday.. I think we are finally ready! Merry Christmas!
