Christmas time activities

A Christmas tradition I had growing up was going to the Nutcracker every year. I thought Brylie was old enough this year so we gave it a try and she loved it. We had to go to the local production of it since we are in St. George. It was still really good. Hopefully next year we can go to it in Salt Lake.



We don't see snow very often around here, so when the first snowfall came last month my kids were beyond excited. We rounded up some snow clothes (some of it hand me downs from cousins since we don't buy many snow clothes) and layered them on. I realized that I had way over bundled my children for the tiny amount of snow we had. Cody could hardly move. Kinda reminded me of the little brother in Christmas Story!

Thought it was funny to have a picture of a cactus with Christmas lights and snow on it (courtesy of the neighbors).


Snow angels (more like grass angels)!

We have yet to see any more snow here. Hopefully that was our one and only snow fall for the season.
