First weekend in December

Well technically the the last day of November and the first weekend in December.

Friday November 30th the kids and I went to Hobby Lobby and they picked out their ornaments...

 That night we had our annual couples white elephant party.  We decided to make it a couples date night at Strings and then hosted the dessert and party at our house after.

 We had such a fun group!! Both sets of Callisters, Chu's, Harrison's, Chamber's, Smith's and us.

We did the fun package game...

 ate dessert...

 a couple Christmas trivia games...

 and the white elephant exchange.....

 It was a blast! Lots of laughs and fun!!

Saturday December 1st I took the kids to a little craft fair in town and then we went home and waited for our guest!

 We were so excited to have Davey, Kiana, and Roman visit us from Utah for the weekend.

Saturday afternoon we hung out and did crafts and then went out to dinner and to Roman's first movie, the Grinch.

 Sunday morning we woke up early to make monkey bread before church..

 Then we went to church and came home and a relaxing afternoon playing with Roman, games, family walk and of course some video game time...

Spencer made us a really nice tri tip dinner that night..

 Monday 12/3 we kept the kids home from school to go a day trip down to the Fresno zoo.

 We had a great time at the zoo and then we went to Cheese Cake Factory for dinner and to the mall.

Tuesday they left.  We had a nice visit with them and can't wait to see them again hopefully soon.
