December

We went on a family bike ride in Hodge Park.  



Happy 34 birthday to me!  I got a haircut and went Christmas shopping all by myself at IKEA.  Great day.  David and the kids decorated Mandalorian style party; we've liked that show. 


 

David, Mason and Kate went skiing for a few days in December. 


Our last day of Black Spiders music class for the semester!  

 

Our neighborhood is so fun.  We had luminaries on Christmas Eve, a post office for Santa letters, and Santa even came to visit.

 

On one of the last nice days of December, we all went to the zoo and had Mason's friend Asher come with us.  Grant visiting Nana and Pops.

 

 

Julie's preschool had a field trip to the Christmas tree farm, where each student got to help saw down a Christmas tree for the classroom.  It was Julie's helper day, so it was fun!

 

Participating in Light the World service.

 

Happy 9th birthday to Kate!  We had a surprise party for her with some friends at our house.

   

 

Merry Christmas!  We had a great winter break from school, watched lots of movies, played with Christmas presents.  Santa brought Switch games for everyone, so we did plenty of videogaming.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nativity. And David got a new tree; the kids had SO much fun playing with light arrangements.

  

November

Happy 7th birthday Annie!  We had a surprise party for Annie's birthday the weekend prior; on her actual birthday we flew to St. George to hang out with Harper family.  We went swimming, ate yummy food, went shopping, and hiked in Zions.

 

  






 



 

News met with an enormous amount of relief and gratitude!


We had beautiful fall weather, and Grant loved taking walks.  

Happy Thanksgiving!  We did a little family dinner, and all the kids got to choose something special to eat.  (We had popcorn and pancakes among other food, ha.)  We also did a turkey trot with our neighborhood in the morning.  It was chilly!





Getting ready for Christmas!


We also went to Great Wolf Lodge during Thanksgiving break.  As usual, the kids LOVED it and it was a great little getaway.
