A Peek Into Our Week....
All the kids finished up school on
Thurs the 21st!
This was Kyleigh's happy news with her Korean class!
{both girls are rock'in the grades down at the Y.
Super proud of them!}
Kyleigh got to be a missionary pin model for a day for some work project
of a friend...
😂
*****
The Friday morning before Christmas we had a Primary field trip...
$600 of that was in loose change!
vegetable seeds...
THIS PLACE!...
Backer's Pastry Shop makes my eyes pop out.
I love it.
Such vintage charm!!!!
They thought it was hilarious!
I stayed home and had 3 glorious hours playing Mrs. Claus...
getting things wrapped while listening to past MO TAB Christmas concerts...
Bob Ross socks!
She died.
She loves Bob Ross!
and to watch "While You Were Sleeping"...
How come they don't make romantic comedies like this anymore?
This show is one of my absolute favs and
it's becoming a must watch at Christmastime!
Don't get me started on Christmas movies.
Especially Hallmark ones.
You'd die at how many I've watched since the end of October when they started
airing them everyday.
I've been keeping track.
I'm currently at 36!
😳 haha
Also that night Kyleigh got the
dating app "Mutual".
It was quite entertaining!
*****
Saturday morn the girls helped de-vein all the shrimp in preparation for our
Christmas Eve Seafood Feast....
Elf "sugar" party...
I wrapped a box of everyone's favorite cereal.
Hannah was so happy cuz I don't buy this much sugar cereal
THAT often!
compliments of a neighbor.
Christmas Pictionary...
Team Ding Dongs vs. Team Ho Ho's...
Kyleigh went to see Star Wars with her good buddy!
Christmas Eve...
Sunday we had church for just an hour!It was great!
I think we have the best ward choir around.
Christmas music definitely has my heart!
Here Kate is anxiously watching out the window
for dad to get home from church...
so we could get a family pic...
only so she could get out of her Christmas dress.
😜
She'd live in p.j.'s or exercise clothes
if she could.
Our Seafood Feast that afternoon!
Presents and gift cards galore!
we did socks instead of p.j.'s!
and a new Christmas book to add to our collection.
Feeding the reindeer!
We were hoping for more snow...
We did get a skiff on Christmas Eve...and it was better than nothing.
👏
Santa Claus.
A Molasses cookie {from Backer's}
was left out for Mrs. Claus.
😉
Those cookies are to di-et for!
We ended the evening watching...
The girls all slept in the same room...
Some Christmas morning snuggling before
opening presents..
It was 8:00 before we were up and at it!
We are so not morning people.
We've been saving and saving so we could go to Disneyland again.
It's been over 3 years since we went last.
The girls knew about the upcoming Disney trip,
but we surprised them with a day in Harry Potter World as well.
They sorta wigged out!
It was complete awesomeness!
Especially for those in the fam that are huge Harry Potter fans!
Sweet little school gifts made from Kate...
Breakfast casserole, french toast, yogurt parfaits, sweet bread, bacon,
biscuits and gravy...
It was another scrumptious feast for the belly!
I swear one wish I have is that I could eat anything and not feel sick
{because of my food allergies}
AND not gain weight by eating it!
😏
😂
Poor Kyleigh had to go into work at 3 Christmas afternoon!
Boo.
Rest of us headed to my parents to visit with the extended...
Tuesday morn I met a dear friend visiting from Colorado for brunch.
Left Fork Grill in South Salt Lake has a small town, diner dive,
retiree/truck driver pit stop feel to it...
WITH delicious food!
{p.c. local eats website}
and the other half of us went to see COCO.
{Emmsie had rewatched all the Star Wars movies prior to seeing this new one.
She was SO excited!}
Poor Kyleigh was stuck down in Provo for a couple of days cuz of work
so she couldn't join us for the movies,
but some childhood friends went down and kept her company!
Coco was super cute guys!!!!
{I even cried.}
Lindor White Peppermint Chocolates in it!
YUM!
These things flipp'in melt in your mouth!!
Then gosh dang these little squares of goodness....
It's a darn good thing I don't drink...cuz I think rum and bourbon would be a
problemo for me.
😬
Another breakfast out with good friends...
Is anyone else in a food coma and feeling like a fatty like me right about now?
😂 Jeesh!
This time to Midvale's Mining Cafe
Um...not my favorite ambience place wise, but that's ok!
Just happy for the time with good friends.
A few of Kate's favorite things......
Santa brought her this Detective's Toolkit!
She's played this with her boy cousins...
One was dressed up in his police officer costume.
So cute!
She has spent hours playing with this Lab!
Water, soap and food coloring make her content as can be..
She and I have spent time building Stephanie's Lego House
🙌
Both she and Brie have loved playing with this!!!
She's making me a ring with it!
We are relishing these last few days of
Winter Break!
It just comes and goes so so fast.
I wanna just bottle it up and keep it forever!
Here's to a safe and Happy New Years!!!
😘
