Hannah got her first haircut. I was very politely informed that she had a mullet, so I had to fix it. She did well....once she got a sucker. The lady who cut her hair even gave her some layers in the back to make it look thicker. Hannah instantly seems more grown up to me. Her hair is adorable! The top right is the before, and the bottom right is the after.
We went to Steve's work party, where we lost our voices from yelling over the band. It was a good time tough. I just have to say that I'm thankful I don't drink so that I don't have to worry about making a fool of myself.
Early the next morning, Steve and I ran four miles in the snow and rain. It was actually perfect! It was quiet, cool and refreshing.
Next we made a double batch of Vanilla Cream Caramels with my mom. You haven't had caramels until you've had these. It is almost a science to have them turn out perfectly!
After caramels came a trip to the Bountiful Temple. Thank you mom for watching the kids! It was wonderful to have some quiet time to reflect on our Savior.
Next we went to Salt Lake to attend the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert. It was more crowded than ever, and I've been going for ten years! Thanks to Steve's aunt, we were able to have a good place in line and had pretty decent seats. I love all the songs we sing to honor and celebrate the birth of Christ. I always feel the spirit when I hear the songs of His birth.
Once home from the concert, we wrapped said delicious caramels. Then finally came a good night's rest. It was a busy and fun-filled two days!
I want to wish each of you a safe, enjoyable, spirit-filled Merry Christmas!
