Christmas is coming!

Christmas is coming and we don't have a goose that is fat! We had better hurray. We got a relatively late start to the holiday season considering that all of our decorations were in storage. We were hoping that we would be moving before Christmas but that hasn't quite worked out yet. So we had to search for our decorations. We had a great Family Home Evening where we went and picked out a tree and we had a fun night decorating and drinking hot chocolate. It is so much fun to see all of the tree ornaments each year and to add to them. Eli got his first ornament which is a Rudolph ornament. This will add to our Elvis, Black Santa, Denver Broncos, Tinkerbell, and several fun Nutcracker ornaments. We are ecclectic to say the least. We can't decide on a theme so we make it up as we go along. This is such a great time of year and my kids are really looking forward to seeing the lights on Temple Square and seeing David Archuleta perform with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. We also went to the Festival of Trees where we were able to see Cam and Amy's tree that Stoel Reves donated. It was so beautiful and was a crowd pleaser. Bring on the season!
