Our Christmas...


The Saturday before Christmas we went to Temple Square with Matt's little brother and family, Nate, Sara & Krew. Jessica was cute... she said this is a 'differenter' temple. We always drive by the Rexburg Temple when we go to Matt's Parent's house and that is when they know we are just about to Grandma's. After a cold visit to temple square we watched a movie with Nate and Sara and hung out the next day. Sara & Krew went home Sunday night and Nate stuck around so he and Matt could head to San Diego Monday Night. They braved the icy roads and made it in time to watch the Boise State game then turned around and headed back to Utah, where they picked the Kids and I up and we headed for Idaho to spend Christmas with Matt's family.

G-ma & G-pa drove the grandkids around to look at Christmas lights. We opened our Christmas Jammies, and after the kids were in bed we played a white elephant gift exchange. Christmas morning, Grandpa was up shoveling the driveway before the kids woke up! We had fun hanging out, eating and playing with new toys:) We all went to watch Bedtime Stories at the movie theater that night. It's a really cute/funny show. We went sledding the next day, it was cold! I'm pretty sure it wasn't above 10 degrees and there was a lot of snow! Before we knew it, Sunday came and after church it was time to head home.

Finding things to do...

Josh and Jaren are off track so I've been finding things for us to do online. These are a few of the cuter pages I've found. They've been off track since the 25th of November and go back on the 5th of January. They've helped decorate the house and we sorted through the toys, threw some away and gave some to D.I. Played outside, but it's not as fun when it's cold and there is no snow. They have watched more TV than they need. I need to get some green crape paper so we can make a cute wreath I saw online. Justin has preschool twice a week and Jessica is already asking when she can go to school. :) Just wanted to write something so you knew we were still alive. The kids are very excited for Christmas to come... I wonder what Santa will bring!!!
