Temple Square

Michael (John's brother) came to visit last weekend. We had a good time and enjoyed being together. Micheal said he had never been to Temple Square to see the Christmas lights. We had a good time. Michael was able to do a couple of "firsts" when he was with us. He saw the Christmas lights on Temple Square and he was able to hold hands on Temple Square. You will never guess with who....

Too bad it was just with this boy!!


Bryce, Brandon, and Brinley enjoying the Christmas lights.


Even though it was cold outside we were bundled up so we were warm. We had a good time.

Michael, thanks for coming to visit!!

Snowman

The First Snowman of Christmas!!!


We had fun making a snowman. Some of the kids (Bryce) wanted a snowball fight, while everybody else wanted to make a snowman. The kids really didn't know how to make a smowman. Bryce thought we could go to the library and check out a book with "instructions for making a snowman". After we made the snowman, Bryce said it was an Elf snowman because it had pointed ears.


We then used the snowman as target practice. It was all fun and games until I hit the snowman square in the face. I literally wiped the smile (and everything else) right off his face. Suddenly the kids didn't think it was that funny. We repaired the snowman and had a real snowball fight. It was fun!! (and a little cold for the fool who didn't have any gloves with him. Hey, I just thought I was supervising. I didn't think I would get involved.)
