Our December







It's amazing how much faster Christmas comes now that I am an adult and a mom. There is always so much to do during the month that all the sudden it's Christmas Eve and we have to go get all our Christmas presents. I remember being a kid and thinking that Christmas would never come! We were able to do some fun things during the month. We took Bjorn on Trax for his first time and went to a Christmas Symphony in Salt Lake. Santa came out on the stage and did a little sing along. We took Bjorn out to lunch afterwards at the Lion House. I think he had fun hanging out with mom and dad all by himself... no little brother around to take away any attention. Bjorn had his Christmas Program for pre school. We almost didn't make it because of the horrible snowstorm that day, but we found some back roads and pushed on through. My one regret from Christmas is that we only have a couple pictures. We forgot to charge our camera on Christmas Eve so we woke up Christmas morning and saw that the battery was dead! :( Jason said he can probably get some off of our video camera, so Im hoping for that! We have this one (that's blurry) of Bjorn putting cookies and milk out for Santa on Christmas Eve. Then we have a couple of Bjorn playing with his racetrack... the one thing that he really wanted. Good thing Santa pulled through. We had a great month and a fun Christmas. My favorite part is being able to hang out with family, eat good food, and watching the kids get so excited about all the Christmas things!

Our camera WAS charged, and I still didn't get any decent pictures. I just hate being behind the lens of a camera during fun events like that. I'd rather LIVE the moment than capture it, I guess. But then, later, I always regret it.

I love taking Trax with Ashlee. She loves it. So convenient. I am glad you had a good Holiday.

Glad you had a fun Christmas! AND really cool that you went to the symphony! I don't think I could pay Dan to go! But, I would love it. I started up a new blog, I can't remember if I told you. It's www.oneshetwoshe.blogspot.com

I'm with Andrea on the not taking pictures thing! I seem to always have the cam with me, but never use it enough! (I only have it with me cuz Ryan grabs it for me!) Christmas is awesome-though, I could use double the days to get everything done!
