The months events....

I say that like we had a lot going on...not really. Don't get me wrong we have done some fun Christmas activities, but mostly I have been staying warm and cozy at home not wanting to go out! Nathan has on occasion this month made me leave my warm comfortable nest to go out and be social :). The highlights....

- Went to my parents house to decorate sugar cookies and ended the evening by a fire singing Christmas carols, and talking about Christmas past...really nice evening loved it.

- Made Christmas crafts on several nights with Nathan and the kids, and enjoyed feeling like a kid again in elementary school! I always loved this time of year in Elementary school because of the fun artwork and crafts we would make....

- Had my friends from High school over to celebrate Liz getting engaged!! We had a sleep over at my house and talked all night by a fire and glowing Christmas tree:). Everyone ended up falling asleep on the floor.

- Went to see the elves at Gardner Village with Nathan and the girls. If you have never been before I suggest you go! So darn fun! And can I just say magical??? I took pics of that event, but you will have to forgive their blurriness.....not a word?

- Went to the Critchfield  family Christmas party. OK they had the best Santa ever! He stayed for dinner too. Becca did not leave his side all night, she even sat next to him at dinner, it was so stinking CUTE! She asked him all night for a tinker bell baby doll??? What is a tinker bell baby doll?? Got mad at myself several times that night for not bringing a camera!@#$ Sorry about that, can you tell I am still mad?

- Went up to Park City the other night with my mom to do some last minute shopping. It was snowing like crazy and made it all the more fun. Seriously! Yes I like snow...I have mentioned this a time or 2 I think?  Then we went to Target and stayed until they kicked us out at midnight. Fun night I tell you, really enjoyed it!

-Tomorrow night we will be hosting all of Nathans good friends from high school, with a yummy tenderloin dinner....Your jealous I know:) Since that has yet to happen I can't tell you about it, but this is the 3rd year we have done this at our place, and it is always memorable and full of good laughs (thanks to Nathan:).

- Most every night this month, I have been snug as a bug in our family room watching a good old Christmas movie....I love movies I just do alright! :)
