SANTA!!
We were so excited that Santa came to our Christmas party.. because we were beginning to think he wasn't real!
Chunk Family
One afternoon about a year ago, we were watching old family home videos at my friend Calli's house. There about five videos of her family being the "chunk family." They had it perfectly scripted and would dress up stuffing their clothing. We thought it was hilarious and got inspired to make our own videos. Last weekend after our friend Christmas party, we decided to make another chunk dance video. Here are a couple pictures...

Most wonderful time of the year!!
I absolutely LOVE Christmas and everything that goes along with it! I got so excited for Christmas shopping that I'm basically done already! I don't know what I'm going to do for the next 21 days. Luckily there are so many fun Christmas activities. Adam took me to see the lights at temple square. Tonight we're going to watch Clayton (my old singing and dancing group) perform at the Festival of the Trees.
