were beautiful last night.
We started the evening with A Christmas Carol, which was performed at the Hale Center Theatre in West Valley City. Highly recommended! Then we feasted at The Macaroni Grill in Salt Lake, and finished the evening with a walk through Temple Square. It was incredible! Every little branch supported a string of lights. My favorite spot was the reflecting pond with the illuminated floating bubbles.
That said, I'd like to remind everyone of the four basic food groups at Christmas. Candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup. ...Anyone know what movie this is from? It's one of my favorites.
And, to top things off, my youngest has decided to put Santa to the test this year. When he sat on his lap last week, he asked for a squirrel.
Yes, a squirrel.
A real, live, teeth-and-claws-squirrel.
His older brother, who visited with Santa next, asked for a pony and a girlfriend. To which Santa replied, "You're too old for the first, and too young for the second." Unfortunately, he didn't give the youngest a witty reply, so Christmas morning will be interesting, unless Santa finds a way to bait and trap some furry rodent while traveling over Wyoming or other nearby state that hosts such critters.
Happy Holidays!
So did the squirel come? I hope you had a great day. Merry belated Christmas!
ReplyDeleteNope. No squirrel. All available squirrels were in hibernation. We'll see what shows up on the list next year.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Jenn! Hugs to those beautiful girls.
