Leavenworth Fun!!

The Trevinos and our family decided to go to Leavenworth to meet our good friends, the Dicksons, who live in Tacoma. It was a great middle point for us all to meet and we had a great time. We had yummy food, great conversation, and lots of fun sledding. It was the kids first time sledding and they loved it. I think we just might have to make a yearly tradition.

Festivities!!

We have been enjoying December, it seems like time is flying and Christmas is coming too quickly. I always get excited for Christmas but I don't want it to come because then its over. The Christmas decorations get put away, the Christmas music stops playing and it feels a bit sad. But we have been enjoying the festivities. We saw Santa at our Ward Christmas Party, we got a special visitor for the month of December, saw a reindeer, made ornaments, a gingerbread house, made goodies for neighbors, watched a lot of Christmas movies, and more. Just a few more days until Christmas, I have everything done. We are going to relax and just enjoy the next few days until Santa comes. 
This is Ajin, our elf. Ella named him. He has come to visit us until Christmas. He watches the kids and reports to Santa each night on how the kids have done. He always ends up somewhere new in the morning. He was taking an elf bubble bath with our marshmallows.
