First Part of December 2021

Blake and Marissa created Family Movie Night.

We have held it four Sundays now.

We are provided a ticket each week showing what movie we will see.

Each week the production takes on a new dimension. The kids set up check in tables and now menus for what treats are available. Last night dinner was provided. Things like nachos, chips and cheese, nuggets, yogurt to name a few. Then there were sides, drinks and treats. All prepared by the kids.

It is a very fun tradition. I hope we continue to do it. 

Marissa has also created a chart for Family Home Evening. 

We all take turns with an activity, treats, song, dinner.

 I think it's a moving target as far as what we do. 

We finally arranged to go back to St. George to pick up our stuff from Sharlotte. We drove I-80 to avoid road closure and so it made driving to Corinne's new home first. It was a shorter day too.

After spending the first night there, we drove the rest of the way to St. George. We picked up our stuff and were able to spend the night at our previous Bishop's home. We also went out to dinner with Ken and Jan Harris. We had to go to Zupas because they don't have one in Colorado. Also hit Arctic Circle for our favorite Moose Tracks Shake. Colorado does not have Artic Circles either. 

Fred finally took me to the Creamy on the way back to Corinne's. 

I've been waiting for years to try it out.

Another spill down the front of my shirt. Happens almost every time I eat.

The return trip to Corinne's for another night with her family. The boys opening their Advent calendars.

They also opened the Usborne Advent Calendar that Jess sent them.

Very cute little books to read each night before Christmas.

Garrett played a little concert of Christmas songs for us. He is very good.

Spencer also took a turn. Both boys are doing so well with their music.

 I'll post about our trip to Scott's in a few days.
