Winter

I cant believe that Christmas is just around the corner.  I love this time of year and all the fun things going on.  I dont love how busy I am though, I feel like I dont get to fully enjoy.  Here are a few things we have been up to lately...


We went to the lights at Temple Square.  The weather was nice and the girls werent too bad either.  I had told Maggie earlier that we could ride Trax when we went and she didnt let us forget, even though we tried!  But it may have been the highlight of her night. 


 My sisters came over last night and we made our neighbor gifts.  It might be a little early, but it feels good to have them done.


 Every year there is a local live Nativity at Bonneville Glen.  It is only one night and this year was packed becuase the weather was still nice.  Maggie looks pretty good here!  She love it so much she didnt want to leave. 


We have also been taking full advantage of  Discovery Gateway.  We try to go atleast once a week.  Im sure most of you have been there but if not...its a  hit with the kiddos!


Nana bought Mags this Gingerbread house.  She took the candy placement very seriously, but it turned out pretty cute. 


Its family tradition for my family to go "up the mountain" and cut our tree the day after Thanksgiving.  The past few years there hasnt been much snow, this year was a little different.  We all got stuck and it was pretty funny.  Good thing we have tough boys because they had to pull us out. 


 I can't handle how cute this little bundle looks in her snow gear. 
And Maggie is growing up so fast.  I swear she looks like shes 17.


Here is our group shot.  Jen stayed at moms house becuase she was a little under the weather and Mitch is working.

Maggie did a fantastic job on her gingerbread house! It is so cute!

I love your tradition! I bet it was a lot of fun to be with your family picking out your tree! Your kiddo's are so darling! Maggie does look all grown up!
