Happy Holidays!

Many of our Christmas traditions have already come to fruition.  One of which being our picture with Santa and the Sorensen cousins.

 I was able to do my tradition of making Roxey a pillowcase (Penny doesn't need one yet) and filling it with an advent calendar, Christmas jammies, and a few books.  I couldn't get a decent picture of the two of them on the pillow, but I was pretty proud of Roxey, I let her pick out the fabric and ribbon this year and it went together really well.

  I especially love this tradition because in all the years that we have been married, I don't think that I can say I have been to the same company party two years in a row!  There were even a few years where we didn't even have a company to celebrate with!  So it was refreshing to go and see familiar faces at the Ken Garff Hyundai company party.

(Side note, we had to move our tree because we were getting a new couch that day and didn't notice our star was crooked until after the next day, oh well, not a great shot anyway!)

This was a new thing I found out about this year and loved!  At our local nursery, they had all these animals, a hayride, cookies, hot chocolate, and Santa.  My children are not fond of Santa, but we sure enjoyed the rest.  Now there's lots more traditions that I wish we could do, but my girls are still small and hopefully I will be able to do more as they get older.  I hear so many cute things that people do with their families, but much of what I do has to be without Jordan since he is working so hard, so I do what I can.  Maybe I'll make it to Temple Square this week, that would be awesome!  Wish me luck, better yet, text me if you want to meet me there! :)
