Tis the season to be busy. Every year I start Christmas a little earlier than the last year and yet i still find myself scrambling at the last minute. I do not like being unorganized and I hate to be crazy busy. But the season is drawing nearer and i think I'm about done. We have spent the last few weeks playing as well. The temple lights were beautiful as always and it was a lot warmer than some previous years. Not as much fun without joey trying to figure out his camera or without me stepping in the reflecting pool. The zoo lights were fun too. we got a great pic of a zebra up close and had peppermint hot chocolate-yum. The next weekend we drove to Williams AZ for the polar express. London watches the movie everyday and calls it polar es sprites. Santa came on the train and we sang carols. it was cold and magical. we also did a horse drawn carriage ride- that made it feel like Christmas!!! The next morning we went to the dear farm where londy fed about 30 deer and we played with baby camels, bucks and billy goats. that was so cool!!!! over all the magic of the season has been in full force. now if we can just make it through Christmas- this year ----this awful , long year will be over soon.
