Look at all the cool stuff we're doing! :)

So, this last month, I went back to doing full time school. It's been a bit of a challenge getting to know new kids half way through the year. I didn't anticipate this change especially so soon, but we're embracing it and making it work with everything else that we have got going on!

First of all, I am so grateful for the opportunity that we have had to be in a freezer meal group. It has been so nice to be able to exchange meals and have them already in the freezer ready to go with these crazy holidays! It's totally worth a 2 hour cooking session to get this ready so I can have meals throughout the month even though...

...during the whole process of the actual cooking part, it totally sucks! Tons of dishes and cans and chicken! I mean, I am surprised that I survived to be completely honest! This is just a portion of the dishes and I had a full garbage can full of stuff just from this one cooking session!

We got to go and see Catch Me if You Can at Hale Center Theater! This is the last show of our season ticket pass! Loved it this year! And this show in particular was quite fabulous! We are anxiously awaiting the CD from the library so we can listen to the music again! What a fun show! Highly recommend!

I also did an event with my skirts at the Megaplex for Mockingjay Part 1. It wasn't the greatest event, but I met my new best friend Leslie!!! Loved hanging out with her and I think I am going to try a different movie. Skirts are still going strong. Not as strong as I would hope sometimes, but I am for sure going to keep doing this for a while. 

We saw Mocking Jay Part 1. We liked it just fine, but we kind of wish that they would have just done one big 3 hour movie instead of splitting it into two parts. When they do these part one and part two things...it just gets.........a little slow in the first movie. My other comment was that I wish that we would have just waited to see this one until the next one came out.

We of course loved making gingerbread houses with the Neff family! This year, we decided to make a log cabin! So much fun! I loved making this with Christopher! Especially because he made the frosting too runny and it was EVERYWHERE! But, it ended up being a happy accident and ended up being pretty awesome snow on the roof!

Aren't we cute? Loved this day! Fun!

And SELFIE!!! Oh wait...Warren photobombed! :)

And of course we put our Christmas Decorations up for the season!

And we haven't made it to temple square downtown this season, but we did get to go to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple and enjoyed the spirit there!!!

My other new favorite thing to do is to make homemade rolls in my breadmaker on Sundays. And of course, you have to have some hot chocolate during the holidays!!! :)

And here is our Christmas card! We were trying to figure out how to print it but the picture resolution wasn't working, so here it is!!! :) Happiness for the holidays!!! :)
