Happy Birthday Aaron!

Happy Birthday to our favorite husband and dad. We love you!

Friday

Ok, so Aaron and I had a great time on Friday. After we dropped our kids off at my parents, we checked in at the hotel and walked over to Tucanos. We really enjoyed the food there. I would definitely recommend it. Join their club and go during the month of your birthday so you can get one meal for free. The food was great. They had grilled pineapple which was delicious and a great salad bar. All of the meat they served was yummy. We tried chicken heart...not so yummy. The service was great, and we definitely will be going back. After dinner we went to the Kurt Bestor christmas concert. It was fantastic. He is a very talented man. He preformed some of his older, well-known music along with new songs. We enjoyed the concert a lot and we will continue to try and go every year. It was a great weekend getaway, made even better by the fact we didn't have to wake up at six in the morning to take care of our kids who don't know how to sleep in. We are bummed it is over.

Tomorrow

Ok, so tomorrow is going to be an awesome day. Aaron has the day off and we are going to get our Christmas shopping pretty much done. I love to shop. Dallin will be playing with a friend so we won't have to worry about him running all over the stores. Then, when we are done shopping the kids will have a nap, and we will drop them off at my parents house to sleep over. We are then going to start Aaron's birthday celebration. His birthday is a week from today but we are celebrating it tomorrow.

First we are going to dinner at

We haven't been here before, but it sounds really good. Kind of expensive, but we signed up for their club so we get a free meal since it is Aaron's birthday month. Pretty sweet deal.

After dinner we are going to see this guy at Abravanel Hall.

This will be our third time to see Kurt Bestor's Christmas concert. It is so much fun. He does a really good job, and it is the perfect way to get in the Christmas spirit.

After the concert, we are going to stay here...
The hotel is on the same block as Abravanel Hall, so we can just walk to and from the concert. We did it last year and it was so much fun. Plus we don't have to worry about finding a parking spot downtown. It is going to be a fun day.

Snow!!

It finally snowed yesterday! Dallin was so excited, so as soon as Aaron got home from work they went and played in the snow. Dallin loved it.

Here is a picture of the snowman they built.

Look What I Made!

I went to Relief Society tonight and we made pinatas! I made mine fairly quickly so it doesn't look that great, but it was really fun and super easy. I can't wait to watch Dallin and his friends break it open.

Decorating the tree

We decorated the tree on Saturday. Dallin and Brooke loved it. Dallin helped a lot, so now we have groupings of ornaments on the bottom half of the tree. Brooke liked all of the lights.
