We got our tree at Home Depot. It was very tall and full, but the top was crooked, so the star was too.

We invited my siblings over for soup, rolls and gingerbread house making. Jolynn and Bo brought their families. We could not get our house to stay up, so we spent the whole time putting it back together and then watching crash.

We had to leave to go to Camryn's piano recital and when we got back, we broke down and used the hot glue gun to get it to stay up and then we decorated it.
Cam played Toyland and Mary, Did You Know? at her recital. We love having Kim teach her and we love the recital treats afterwards.

Seth had his 1st band concert. The Intermediate Band played Fiesta on the Housetop, The Night Before Christmas, and Escape (The Pina Colada Song). Seth played the Glockenspiel and the snare drum. The concert was short and sweet.

The Goons had created a Horror Movie Escape Room in their house for Cynjyn's birthday. Before they took it all down, they invited a few couples over to play. Dave and I started cheating the second it started, pulling off our chains before finding the keys. We had to go through several room figuring out clues, putting together puzzles, and finding codes and keys to get out. We made it - just barely.

The Goons had us over again the next night for the Annual Ugly Sweater Party. I wore a weird elf sweater and Dave wore a BYU sweatshirt - to anger some of the other guests. The invite had puns about hamming it up and being cheesy - so we potlucked ham and cheese dishes. After eating we played a few games.

We had never been out to the Speedway to see the lights at Christmas, so we went Friday night. Donna and Taylor Thomson came along. It was so busy we had to wait forever to get in.
We had never been out to the Speedway to see the lights at Christmas, so we went Friday night. Donna and Taylor Thomson came along. It was so busy we had to wait forever to get in.
They had different light displays sponsored by different companies. Some were cool but some were just really random.
You were supposed to tune into a certain radio station to listen to music as you drove through, but the music went in and out and didn't have anything to do with the displays, so we started trying to think of and sing our own songs that had to do with what we were seeing.

Even though Shae and Courtney are on missions, the rest of the girls from that group got together for Girls Night. They exchanged gifts, went to dinner, visited Amelia (Shae's mom, who usually hosted), and hung out at Paige Lee's house.

We used our Pogo Pass to check out the Lion Habitat, where the lions from the MGM are housed.

We got there just in time to see the giraffe paint. She just held the brush in her mouth and rubbed it on a canvas.
We walked around and saw the lions. They mostly just lay around. They did start roaring back and forth while we were there.
We also got to see the lions be fed. The worker told us that all the lions are descendants of the lion at the beginning of the MGM movies and a few other fun facts, like that they feed the lions horse meat. It was a nice facility.
