We put up the tree and decorations. We’re still tweaking the decorations, but this is what it looks like currently.
My family did their annual candy houses. That mangled mess in front of my house represents the mangled mess that is our car (nicknamed “Plucky”).
McKenna and Taylor each had dance concerts that we went to. Jordan had a choir concert and Alex was in a performance of “The Nutcracker.” We sadly missed both of those. We wanted to go, but Jeremy failed to inform anyone of Jordan’s performance, and Alex’s was on the same day as Taylor’s, and it was too hard for us to do both. But we really did want to see them, and are very sorry that we didn’t. Taylor and McKenna’s were great though.
We invited Ty, Cami, and Ken over for dinner one night. We ate chicken and salad; discussed politics, religion, literature, and the arts; then played some Mario Kart Wii. (Ken and I won!) It was a whole lot of fun and already have our next get-together planned.
December is also full of birthdays. Jon turned 40, Kaytlin is turning 12, and Taylor is turning 16. Then after Christmas, my Grandma will be... I dunno. But because most of my family is off to Disneyland before Christmas, we’ve been celebrating some of them early. So we had three birthday parties this week.
Well, that’s our Christmas so far. Since we probably won’t post again until after Christmas, we hope you all have a wonderful holiday. Merry Christmas!
Update: Ty & Cami posted some pictures on Facebook that reminded us of something we forgot to mention. We went with my parents to Temple Square earlier this month. I recently found out that Jenn had never gone up to see the Christus (at least in Salt Lake), so we decided to go. It was very cold, but worth it.

We sure did have fun with the Wii tournament. We are going to have to practice so we can get better :)
Everything looks so Merry and Bright!
Sounds like you're have a good time. Awesome!
I love the candy houses. Good job, both of you!
