Random December

 Sarah held a recital for her students. They all adore her, and it's not hard to guess why. 

We continued our tradition of attending the Mountain West Ballet with Lynette. Audrey joined us this year and enjoyed it until her attention span was depleted. 

We were talking about how much Steven looks like me, so we brought out a couple of my old pictures. I don't miss my boy hair phase. ;)

Sarah found an old picture of me and recreated the shot. She definitely wore it best. I need to add the picture of me when I find it. 

Sarah got a job at Zupas, so we made sure to drop in and show our support. She was SUPER happy to see us. ;) 

We went ice skating with the Case's on the 28th and a lot of fun was had. It was our only time going, but we'll need to go more next season. 

Merry Christmas!

 Merry Christmas from the ??? We didn't have a family picture I wanted to use for our annual Christmas card, so I used this cute picture Sarah drew. While making them, I somehow failed to write who they're from. Hopefully people looked at the envelope before opening them. ;)

We went to visit Erik and see the lights. I don't remember why Audrey isn't in the picture. She must have fallen asleep in the car. (It's April, so December is a little fuzzy)

Christmas Eve Sarah received a giant box and opened box after box until she had a set of dog tags with a little love note in morse code written on them. 

Christmas morning we watched The Nativity, opened presents, and went for a family walk and found a sketchy swing under the bridge. 

I love Christmas! I love this time of year when we get to celebrate the birth of Jesus. I love my Savior and the gift He is in mine and my family's lives. 

Audrey's dance recital

 I've probably said this before, but I'll say it again- Little girl dance recitals are adorable! She even got to meet Santa. 

Winter Waltz

 Sarah was a popular girl for Winter Waltz. She'd been invited by a guy named Brian, and planned on going with him, but the date got cancelled when she friend zoned him. (poor guy!)

Her friend Conrad, AKA Connie, then asked her. Sarah goes to a small High School (700 kids total) so her friend group just rotates who goes who to dances. Connie asked her (Need to find out) 

Steven went stag with his friends, but I still made him let me take a picture.
