Lance took the girls to the Daddy-Daughter dance at their school last Friday. They always get excited to get their hair done and put on fancy dresses and go dance the night away with their dad. Our Stake President was at the dance as well and commented abouthow he was impressed with Lance dancing with two girls at the same time, one on each arm.
We went to San Diego a few weekends ago to help celebrate Mackenzie's fourth birthday. We left after school and arrived FIVE AND A HALF HOURS later. Remind me not to leave at that time EVER again. We had fun staying at Jamie and Dave's house. The Princess Party was so much fun for the little girls. Mackenzie is growing up so fast. Wasn't is yesterday when she was born?? Thanks for letting us help celebrate your birthday girl!
Lots of Presents 
A trip to see the new Elephant Exhibit at the LA Zoo
"Pupcakes with Sparkles" (translation Cupcakes with Sprinkles)
A Cheeseburger from Five Guys
Equals one happy Three Year Old! 
Thanks so much to Grandma and Grandpa for letting us crash at their house for two weeks at Christmastime. We had so much fun! I know the kids will have fond memories when they are grown up.
We decided on the non-traditional option for Christmas Eve Dinner. We went to In N Out. Mmmmmm.......delicious.
We decided to go to Temple Square to see the lights on Christmas Eve. I was planning to go after Christmas when it wouldn't be as crowded but Lance informed me that it wouldn't be the same after Christmas. So we packed up our kids and got them as warm as we could. This was when I realized that the coat that I bought especially for Jackson to wear in SLC had been left behind in California. We improvised and kept him as warm as possible. The lights were beautiful and the kids had fun seeing them with their cousins.
After the Nativity Pagent, there came a knock on the door, and can you guess who it was? SANTA!!! He brought presents for each child and talked to each one individually. It cracked me up when each of my children got onto Santa's lap and they totally forgot about their greedy two page Christmas Lists. When Santa asked them what they wanted for Christmas, they shyly and quietly said "books." WHAT???? What happend to the Ipod Touch, the Wii games, the DVDs, games, jewelry, clothes........??????
