Christmas Sweater Party

We made the trek to Salt Lake this weekend to go to an Ugly Sweater Christmas Party with our friends. Jeff and Lindsay planned and hosted the party and completely outdid themselves. Well maybe Lindsay did!

Dinner was delicious, not to mention the perfect table decor!

The guests...

Alan and Jon became became quite obsessed with Jenga

Thanks Jeff and Linds for a fabulous night. We miss our friends so much and love when we can get together!

The Festival of Trees

This past weekend we went to the Festival of Trees with Chase and Janessa. It was definitely a much smaller version from what I am used to in Salt Lake but we had a great time!

The highlight for the night for Janessa and I was sitting on Santa's lap. I don't know who was more embarrassed when we asked to sit on his lap...Santa or us!

This is darling tree from Real Deals

We ended the night researching wives tales to determine if Janessa is having a boy or a girl...I'm predicting a girl!

Blizzard

There was a blizzard warning here in Poky the week of Thanksgiving. The warning stated that whiteout conditions would disorient travelers or those stepping a short way from warm and dry shelter. Who writes those things, seriously! Anyway, the bonus of this warning was that my work was closed so I got the day off...and we went sledding!

Alan and I were the only two people who got to try out this tube because Cali and Spencer's dog, Bruce, popped it right after we went down the hill for the first time. It was pretty entertaining watching Alan chase after Bruce and the tube. Unfortunately, he never caught him!

This is called "spider". I think the last time I did this was on the swings in Elementary school. It is much scarier sliding down a hill.
