Miscellaneous Christmas stuff...



We went to Temple Square Saturday night after the Aggie vs. Bougar game. The game stunk but Temple Square was a lot of fun. Our kids are at perfect ages right now where they are really in to Christmas and still love everything about it.

We put up our Christmas decorations last night and that was a lot of fun, too. I can't believe how excited kids get about decorating the tree! One of my favorite things about Christmas is our ornaments. Steve's mom gave her kids an ornament each year and then when we got married we inherited Steve's collection. She still gives the kids an ornament each year and it has become one of our favorite traditions. The star above is my favorite one of Steve's - from 1972ish. There's just something about it that I love. Not sure what.

Funny side story: Ryan made banana bread last night and when we took it out of the oven he confessed that he might have put in a little too much vanilla - on purpose. He loves the smell of vanilla and assumed that because it smells so good, TONS of it must taste really good. He learned a valuable lesson that too much of a good thing is not so good.
