December 14, 2008

On Sunday Dec. 14, 2008 we went to Russell and Lindsay's for our final Sunday dinner in Arizona. We got to decorate cookies and open some presents while there. It was a great way to spend our last Sunday. We sure will miss having family around.

We have competitive cookie baker Aunt Lindsay to help for our Sunday feast and about a million cookies. (I ate about 1/3 of them and Russell made a bit of a dent in the pile as well.)

Emmie is always my little angel just chillin' out.

We also opened up our presents early (before the big move). My kids love anything that is wrapped.

Calvin got a little help opening up his present.

After we stuffed ourselves with good eats and family fun we hurried off to see the Christmas lights at the Mesa, AZ Temple.

We will miss walking around the grounds of this beautiful place.

The kids always get a kick out of the bright lights and pretty decorations.

This year (as it is every year if we would just learn) it was colder then we thought (mid 50's) and we had to bundle Emmie while we listened to the LDS/Catholic Choir.

Only is Arizona will you see blooming Orange trees wrapped in Christmas lights (they might have been grapefruits).

We want to see Wichita...and all of the crime scenes. Next post? I am not an optomist, but I figure, what the heck? Love, MomR
