Christmas

We had a great Christmas. We hope everyone else had a fabulous holiday.

Christmas excitement

We are excited for Christmas. That is all that gets talked about in our house. The boys have been very good with our tree this year. We haven't had a single ornament broken (knock on wood). You can't really see in this picture but the boys are sitting by their new ornaments they picked for this year. Blake picked an Elmo and Jackson picked a Ninja Turtle (my brothers would be proud).

Temple square

We went to see the lights at Temple Square. We rode Trax. Jackson thought that was more fun than the actual lights.

We will be okay...we have a chimney!

Jackson would not leave me alone until we made a chimney. Well, we made one. The boys are so proud of it. They were trying to think of everyone that they could call to come look at it.

Santa

Santa visited us a little early at our ward party. We had tickets to a basketball game but Jackson decided that he would rather stay at the party to see Santa. Blake went to the basketball game with Chris. A few days later Jackson said,"We are in trouble Mom. We don't have a chimney so Santa can't come to our house. We need to buy one." I tried to explain that Santa is magic or that we would leave the door unlocked. None of these ideas were good enough. He decided that we would have to make one and put in on our wall. I guess that is going to be our project for the next couple weeks.

Fall

There was a HUGE pile of leaves. The boys had fun playing in them with a few of their friends from the court.
