Christmas (and a few not-so-Christmas) Highlights Week 1

Deerfield Lights

The kids requested we head back to see these neighborhood lights. We went the first week so we enjoyed the less-crowded drive through some amazing neighborhood light displays.





Jammies and Books

Very Merry kiddos and some new books this year as well!









New Book Release

They were counting down the days until this book release of this series they both love. We sadly discovered that this author decided to put a small amount of "woke junk" into the book, so we were very disappointed and will cross those lines out of our books.







Snowman Pancakes

Powdered sugar anyone? Make sure you take note of the snowball in the hand of the snowman below. :)









LEGO Club

The Ringer - flung bells and they had a contest to see who could get their bell the furthest.









Holiday Snack Pack

Lorelei's second horse show was the first weekend of December. We are still fitting in the daily surprises, so hers was a holiday snack pack for the drive. :)








Canyon Visit/Horse Show

We enjoyed a local coffee shop and their holiday drinks, Peppermint Penguin and Sticky Bun.









We enjoyed a coffee visit with Amanda and Sydney!

Pool time with teammates.

Arriving at sunrise...








(We interrupt this horse show feed to show you the boys working on some Christmas LEGOS at home.)


The food truck didn't have great options for Lorelei,
so Amanda very kindly brought her lunch.

Lorelei placed 4th in her second competition,
so she still has a ways to go at her next show in order to quality for regionals.


Nana drove down to spend the weekend with us!

Amanda came to support!
How blessed is this girl to have so many fans?! 

Leaving at sunset.







We took a short drive through the canyon before heading home the next morning. It was an extra-short drive as much of it was closed-off, but still nice to take in a few sights.
