Christmas Party

The last few years Mike's office Christmas party has been at the Anthem Country Club. It is beautiful, glorious and fully decked out for Christmas.

We had a WONDERFUL night out on Saturday. Thank you Mandi for watching Jasper.

This year they had a drawing for gifts and Mike won a new bluetooth headset, which is something that he really needed.

We sat next to Sharon and her husband -- so the dinner conversation was excellent.

I was quite pleased with myself for throwing an outfit together from my closet. I have already requested a new outfit for the party next year. Hopefully Santa will deliver.

I brought my little camera and had fun taking photos of a few couples in front of the big Christmas tree and wreath.

I think I might bring our big camera next year to take photos. I am sure that Mike will just love that idea! :>

Let's Read a Book

I will be honest and say that we have had a lot of fun receiving fun Christmas packages.

Tonight right before dinner we opened a package that just arrived from my friend Bonnie.

In addition to a Beaver, Utah shirt for Jasper and some delicious creamy honey, she sent us a box full of books. Our favorite treat!

While Jasper was in his high chair I showed him each of the books that we received. Jasper seemed most excited about The Little Penguin. He grabbed onto it, started "reading it" and wouldn't let go.

Thanks Bon!
