For christmas John and I had a $50 limit to fill each others stockings. I only went $15 over... John got me an Ipod nano!!! He is a big cheater by going so far over the limit, but I'm so excited to have an Ipod! He filled my stocking with candy, diet cokes, and magazines too. I got John some tennis shoes, a tie, some movies, and candy. We are looking forward to seeing you all on SATURDAY! Its so soon!
Grandma broke out her chocolate fountain, Brecken stayed there til all the chocolate ran out. John played chubby bunny with a mouth full of marshmallows, and Chesney cuddled with her favorite auntie... ME!
Tanner & Alden got a chance to hang out together for a few days and then said their goodbyes. John set Alden apart on Sunday and Alden checked into the MTC yesterday.
We had a musci program at the Christmas Party. The Bishop was leading everyone in "The 12 Days of Christmas" with hand motions. He noticed Paul was not participating and made Paul come up front and do it with him. He let Paul choose someone to come up with him and he picked Tom Stinchfield (Landon's Cleveland Buddy). It was hilarious! Paul was so mad and then Tom was mad at Paul.
Noah was really excited to see Santa. He told Santa he wanted "the Lightning McQueen Cars bike." He let Santa know where he could find it too, "It's at Costco!"
It was pretty dang cold but we bundled up the kids Thanksgiving morning and had a lot of fun on our hike. It was really pretty. Noah talked nonstop! I think we've started a new family tradition.
