This past month was game pack as I'm sure all was. I had wanted to take the boys to Temple square to see the lights. Lucky for us, the Hawkes family was going and invited all to join.


#2= it wasn't a short walk #3 our plan to eat before didn't happen #4 starving kids...
So by the time we met up and the plan to eat before fell through we decided to just walk around.


Who new it was almost 900pm Kobe started to cry that he was cold (no doubt that he was), we we round to the visitor building excited to see the Christ statue only to hear on the loud speaker "please start exiting...the building will be closed in 5mins!!!"
NO STATUE....only time to thaw out your nose to only let the icicle turn to running bugger rivers!AWESOME!




So the next morning we made our own version of the Little America breakfast....Waffles, eggs, ham, fruit, cereal, donuts, plain or chocolate milk....and wonderful company! Swimming, Kobe suddeenly discovered his independence.







We redeem our selves with looking at christmas lights by heading out to the South hills. I swear they had more lights this year. A warm night with tons of people. Trevor wasn't getting any closer to Santa and Kobe couldn't get enough. We went around at least twice!



A new tradition for our family and one only to be improved next year!





Christmas eve was at the jones with GG and PAPA and the rest of that side of the family. Then we headed back home to were we told Santa we would be.

Trevor on the other hand was hard to convince to move onto the next present.




J surprised me with a get away on Sunday just the two of us. Thanks grandma and pa for watching the boys. Jason was even clever to bring long our toaster and some pizza's so we would have to go out to dinner on SUNDAY! We had a nice trip over to see my sweat cuz LISA and ger family. I wish the boys could have played with her boys but the time alone was NICE!! Monday we went shopping (this was part of my belated birthday spending) and lunch at OLive garden and we were back in time to go bowling for Mason' birthday!!

We even got some time to play in the snow for a bit with some friends. I loved having Jason home for almost 2 weeks!!



The usually new year with the Beck' (great company, food and fireworks) was replaced with a DAY ON THE JOB! what's better then ringing in the new year at work?? But my sweet hunny had his parents came down and Brother-in-law and Sister came over just in case I got an "on call". YEAHHHH for me because I DID! I was home by 7:30 with plenty of time to play games, eat snacks and enjoy family time! Although I almost missed the ringing in the new years cause I had a date with "Jon". But I came running into the room just as they said ....1....Happy New Year!!! Fewwww that would have been a sad beginning to the new year :) We have had so much fun. It said that Jason had to go back to work...I was starting to enjoy things....We are excited for the new year and can't wait for the suprises it holds!!!! Happy New Year!!!

Ahhhh what fun you had. And I am so glad you stopped by to see me while you were on your "honeymoon!" It was so fun to hug and chat for awhile...thank you! I was beginning to feel a bit homesick for family and that helped!
Loves ya
Holy cow you've been BUSY!!! Good to know about the stroller/train thing. We were going to do the drive down to SLC to see the lights (I've never seen them) and just never had time. Maybe this year. Your boys are growing so quickly! I just love Trevor's big, pretty eyes!
