Snowy Days and Mondays Always Get Me Down...

This was the snow storm we had yesterday. It snowed ALL day down here. My car parked by the road and mailbox isn't for fun either. I got STUCK!

My plan was the shovel the driveway myself, but I of course the idea of taking some pictures got the better of me. That's ADD for you. So here are some of the pictures I took last night when I got home from work.

Bennett Sibling Get Together.

All the Bennett Siblings (except Brend-who was working) came down for a get together since we won't be together for Christmas. It's a lot of fun hanging out with my family and never a dull moment. We really didn't do all that much except a gift exchange and listen to Mike tell stories (all night, mind you). Just being together is good enough for us I guess.

Geena's beautifully decorated tree. When they first put it up, Kobe and Bugs had tons of fun crawling underneath it. Must have been a fort to them.

Photobucket
If you're wondering what she's knawing on, it's a nose cap from the laughing gas at the Dentist. Yeah... I know, wierd. But they gave it to Kobe after his trip over there and it smells really good. She thinks it's something else though.

I made one of those fleece blankets for Bugs. She LOVES soft blankets. Soft anything actually.

Joel and I. He's my youngest brother-14 and he's a lot taller then me already.

Temple Square

Last Friday night, Jory and I went up to temple square to see the lights. I haven't been in sooo long! It was so beautiful and peaceful though. Well, not the hords of people and all, but I love the feeling of safety and peace you feel while you're on Temple Square. A beautiful and peaceful time, a time to reflect out Saviour's birth.

It's been so hard for so many people this Christmas season and we are no exception. The Christmas Spirit just doesn't seem to be anywhere this year. Going to see the lights did help. If you live in Utah and need something to help you feel the Christmas Spirit, for sure to Temple Square. That or do some service-that helps...

Tonight, Jory and I went to our ward Christmas party. Dinner was of course yummy. But they had us go in groups to different rooms where they set up a story scence thing that was about the birth of Christ. After each presentation, we sang a Christmas carol. The spirit of Christmas was amazing there tonight. It's funny how something so simple can make you feel something so powerful. It was a great night and I'm so glad we went.

Family Legacy Christmas Party

Oh what a fun night! For my work party, all dressed up and went up to Sandy to eat at Carvers. The food was great. Although, the dead black fly I found in my salad wasn't that cool at all. Even still... we managed to have many laughs about it. Afterwards the fun haters ;) left and the rest of us headed over to Club Allure to dance the night away. I haven't been dancing since my first semester in college in '99. WOW... we had so much fun.

Photobucket
Here's why I don't like giving my camera to many people to take a picture-the rule of thirds just goes right out the window. Jory esp will tell you this is one of my biggest pet peeves! I work with a bunch of amazing people and am so happy to work for Family Legacy!

We went to Tammy's suite after dinner to get ready for the club. I work with some pretty hot chics!

This is Sheila and her husband. She is so gorgeous! I hope I look as half as good as she does when I'm her age.
