Christmas Fun

The last few weeks have been so busy with shopping, parties, and getting ready for Christmas. We have done some fun things. Tonight was Jeff's work party at Fleming's Steak House, and it was so good!

Last week was our ward Christmas party. They did a breakfast (instead of the usual ham dinner) and had a bunch of fun crafts and activities for the kids. My only complaint was that it was at 8am on a Saturday...way too early for me!

Tuesday night we went to the Bellagio with Travis, a friend of mine from BYUH, who was in town. We had him take some pictures of us in hopes that we could use them for our first ever family Christmas card, but there wasn't one where all four of us were looking at the camera and smiling. Ugh! Here are some of the rejects. Luckily I did get one of just the kids that worked for a card...but you'll have to wait to get it in the mail to see it! Oh, and one of Jackson's shoes got left at home...nice socks! :)
After checking out the atrium, we all bundled in our coats and went outside to watch the fountain show, and it was FREEZING when the water sprayed us. Poor Jackson couldn't even move in his coat!
