With New Years coming up I decided it would be fun to start blogging again. Mostly to share pictures and captions with them, because honestly I do not like scrap booking and Facebook only holds the pictures...so here we go!
Christmas this year was wonderful! I worked a lot up until the week of Christmas because of my new job, but when it was finally here it was amazing.
One of my favorite parts was going to do sealings with Beau a couple days before. It really helped bring in the spirit, and made it feel more like Christmas.
My parents and Z, so kindly drove all the way from Texas to stay with us for the holiday. Boy am I thankful, and it was a blast. The elf, traditionally, came Christmas Eve (not elf on the shelf), and led us on a Christmas lights scavenger hunt to our pajamas and family game. Beau and I didn't read the directions that say only find 15...
Definitely keeping this game for a future Christmas.
We then read from Luke and The Grinch. Watched some Christmas YouTube videos. Then watched Star Wars some more in prep for The Force Awakens.
We opened presents, I'm so grateful for the kindness and consideration Beau has for me, he gives the best gifts.
For example meet Dodge, he's my football bear who has muscles...
And I am so grateful for my parents for our Disney trip in May. I'm soooooo excited. We of course had to play with little robots to receive our gift. The big hit was these Verizon glasses things that you put your phone in and your in a virtual reality. Pretty trippy.
The day after Christmas we went and had dinner at city creek with Darrell, Dawn, and Allen and Shonda and all the kids. It was fun seeing them for a bit. Then Beau and I went to walk around temple square. We didn't get our traditional Santa picture this year but we got a cute one in front of the tree in the Joseph Smith Building.
We then went to Christus and immediately walking in you could feel the spirit so strongly. It was really a beautiful way to end the Christmas holiday. And it was probably one of my favorite Christmases to date.
