Christmas Countdown - 11 days!

Scooter playing with a Christmas ornament! I always love going to Temple Square to see the lights at Christmas. Temple Square is beautiful at all times, but it is especially beautiful at Christmas. Since my birthday is close to Christmas, one year we went to Temple Square on my birthday and then went to eat at the Old Spagetti Factory. I love memories - and I love making new memories every year. Yesterday we were planning on going to Temple Square with Lins, Glendon, Mauri, Myke, Aubrey and her friend Tyler. But there was a snowstorm that we didn't want to drive that far in - not to mention that walking around in the snow and wind wouldn't have been much fun! So we ended up hanging out at my moms and eating yummy soup that Lins & Glendon brought. Then we made a short drive to Spanish Fork to the "Festival of Lights." It was really fun. The lights were really well done - I especially liked the ones that moved (they had a frog that "hopped" into the water, and some figure skaters among others). Scooter really liked all of the lights, and he was happy that we saw Santa (when he sees Sanat he says: "Oh ho ho! Meeeeerry Christmas! The merry is really clear & he even holds it out for a while. Christmas is not as clear - we usually hear "is mus" - but its dang cute!!). It was a great night - and actually worked out well that we still got to see lots of Christmas lights, but we were able to stay in our warm car!
