Christmas fun

 There are several things that we do as family traditions for Christmas and then there are some things we just add each year.  One think we added this year was going to Thanksgiving Point to see the Christmas lights.  If you don't know what Thanksgiving Point is, it is a place with tons of activities and shopping.  It has the greatest pumpkin patch and is always tons of fun.  We have never gone since we have been here for the Christmas lights so it was something I wanted to since this may be our last Christmas in Utah.

 Im glad that we decided to go.  It was nice to just drive along the path in our HEATED car.  I know I know....the lazy way of seeing lights but it was so nice to be warm so we could enjoy the pretty lights.

 If you live in Utah and have never been to see the lights, you need to.  It is $8 per car but soooooooooooooo worth it.

 Then on to the traditions.  Every year I get Noah a gingerbread house and he gets to build it then eat it.  I found this really cool one at Big Lots and so we decided that tonight would be a great night to do it since tomorrow we will be at my brothers house for Christmas Eve dinner and movies and then the next day is Christmas.

 We needed a little assistance from dad on putting it together.  They had so much fun.

 Only one problem.........IT WOULDN'T STAY TOGETHER!  So we ended up just eating all the candy and trashing the rest.  Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Maybe next year we will have a little more luck.
