| 1. After Christmas clearance shopping: Look what I found half price at Target. :) I seriously giggled outloud at the store. Lucky I am sure is just as excited. |
 |
| 2. More bonding time with Chuckles. Good thing Lilly got a wig with her Merida costume for Christmas that Lizzie can borrow. |
 |
| 3. Sometimes all the Christmas excitement can just make you tired. Twins lean the same way when they are sleeping :) |
 |
| 4. Many Rainbow Loom bracelets have been made. Lizzie just puts a YouTube tutorial on my Kindle and follows step by step. We are still learning. The smile is misleading. Some parts can be a little tricky. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  She was so excited to go use it. Here she is with her Bling Kitty! *Going to the mall with four kids a couple days after Christmas is....well and adventure. We never go to the mall let alone after Christmas!!! I decided to make it as fun as adventure as I could and tried my best to keep a positive attitude. It was very crowded and we had to wait an hour in line at Build a Bear. All four kids were so patient and did awesome waiting. Then we went to the Lego store (Ethan's FAVORITE place). He got to fill a box he got for Christmas with Legos. Then we all went to eat at the Food Court. I don't think my kids have ever eaten in the mall food Court. They found it very exciting. It actually was a fun day with the kids and a lot more tolerable than I thought. I am glad we got to hang out together. |

6.Jim and I had our first date on December 27th, 1997.
Our first date included trying to go bowling, roller skating at Classic and ended with a stop at Sconecutters for cheese fries and water.
For the past few years we have gone back to Sconecutters on Dec. 27th with our kids
for some fries, shakes and Sconenuts.

| Look what happened 16 years later. They are sitting at the exact same table Jim and I sat at on our first date. |
 |
| I am sure we look EXACTLY the same as 16 years ago :) |

| Where it all started. |

| 7. Since Jim got a Carl Bloch painting for Christmas, we decided to go down to the exhibit at BYU. We had the extra pleasure of having Nathan and Liz come with us. The paintings were amazing. We had gone a couple years ago but I think they had more paintings this time. Or maybe I just got more out of it this year. I am in awe of the talents of the artists represented. We were going to go to the Bean museum also but it is closed until spring. Bummer. On the way home we got a box of doughnuts at Krispy Kremes to eat after lunch. Then we all went out to eat at (Red) Brick Oven Pizza. It was a good day with family. So glad Nate and Liz could come along. |
Now we get ready to welcome in 2014!
