Catching Up

This month has seemed to fly by and I was thinking how funny it is that years ago we locked up our diaries and never let anyone read them.  Now we blog about our lives and the entire world can read about what is happening in our lives.  Strange, and yet I enjoy following so many of your blogs.  I only hope someone is reading mine.  Here are some of the highlights of our month.  In no particular order...
 Santa stopped by our family party.  This is truly the real Santa.  He knows all about our family and we look forward to seeing him every year.  
 Never too old to sit on Santa's lap.  Asking for a new hat, that's easy!
 Caleb's turn, all he wants is a laptop...we will see about that one.  Hope Santa delivers.

 Due to bad weather we stayed in Bountiful for Christmas eve and went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner.
It did not disappoint.

 Stetson had a little mishap with slick roads and a curb.  Nothing a few $$$ can't fix.  Bummer!  It's been nice having him hang around home more however.  So, I'm not complaining.
 Coming out of a yummy dinner at the Blue Lemon.  Didn't make it to see the lights this year at Temple Square so here's a few pics I took on the way to the concert.

 Walking back to the car parked in the plaza at the Church Office Building we had the entire plaza to our selves.  Love this temple so much.
Brett returned home from the Australia Brisbane Mission.  Next one to return is Bridger...Hooray!!!
Highlight of my month was seeing Donny & Marie's Christmas Concert.  It was awesome.  I have always been a huge Donny fan, and now even more.  I am hoping to plan a trip to see him again in Vegas.  It was so FABULOUS!  I bought the ticket for myself, but thanks to my good friend Eileen, she let me tag-along with her girls so I didn't have to go alone.  I really didn't mind sitting alone and I would do it again in a heart beat.  I know he looks a little stiff in this photo, but I'm sure he was exhausted after such an amazing show.  You might say it's Puppy Love, but whatever it is, he is still wonderful!
