Christmas Eve Chaos

What a day. First off, we hit the movie theaters and we saw "Invictus" with the Farnsworth's, and we thought it was actually a really great movie. Not as much rugby playtime as we thought, but there was a lot of background and history to go along with it and we really enjoyed it! This was actually my parents first time in a movie theater in 3 1/2 years! Then we went to eat at the Olive Garden, which was fabulous - we even got the big 'family' table. We were in and out in no time with full tummies and we were on our way to Temple Square to look at the lights. It was freezing, so so cold, but it was so nice to all be together.







We then packed a bag and headed to the Jackson's for some yummy caramel apples. With a bunch of different toppings everyone got to add their own touch to their apples. Jared, Jen and Tanner were in from Iowa for a few days, it was so fun to be with them again. We played a couple of rounds of Scum, and had king move to scum and scum almost to king. We ended the night by watching Luke II and remembering Jesus Christ and the real meaning of Christmas. What a fabulous Christmas Eve in preparation for an even better Christmas Day!!
