A Night Out

Every year DeltaValve has an awesome Christmas Party. So far this year was the best. It's always at the Downtown Marriott and always has delicious food (except for the desserts). This year Johnny Biscuit was the entertainment. He was pretty funny, most of the time. DeltaValve, of course, gave away awesome prizes. Some were better than others. We walked away with a free night out...Dinner & a Movie. Not bad.

Annual FMT Christmas Party

Me and my hubbie. Not sure what's up with the goofy grin on his face. But it was either a goofy picture of him or a goofy picture of me. Of course I chose him. =)
Me and my daddy!
Have I mentioned I LOVE Christmas time!

Christmas Traditions

Every year (almost) as a family we've gone out to buy a Christmas Tree together. On the way home we stop and buy donuts and the kids all pick the ones they want. We then come home, have donuts (and sometimes hot chocolate) and decorate the tree together. OK, I hand-out ornaments...the kids put them on. Take a close look at the tree and you'll see how evenly spaced everything is (not!).

I love Christmas time!

Provo River Falls

Chris decided to take the day off work a couple of weeks ago because the weather was "too nice to go to work". Chris, Elizabeth and I went up to Heber and had breakfast at a cute little cafe called The Hub. It was pretty good. Thanks for the suggestion, Dad! After that we decided to drive up to Mirror Lake. The weather wasn't quite as nice up that high. It was still sunny skies but freezing cold. So cold that there was ice all the way down the road that leads to the lake. We have 4 wheel drive but it still seemed a little sketchy so we headed back down the mountain until we came upon a place we never knew exsisted, Provo River Falls. It was beautiful! We got out of the car and checked the place out. Elizabeth thought it was pretty cool. It was a bunch of little falls cascading gradually down the mountain. I'm so happy we found this place!

For Halloween this year Haylee was a "Dead Queen", Zach a "Ninja", Lauren a "Vampiress" and Elizabeth "Snow White". The only kids Chris and I had to take trick or treating this year were Lauren and Elizabeth. Haylee and Zach both went with friends.

I'm not sure what Jordan was supposed to be. Dead, maybe? He hung out at the neighbors house all night as part of their "spook alley".

It was a fun Halloween!
