We had a great break with Mikayl for about a week. We did a lot of cooking, one of our favorite hobbies together. We made a Chocolate Cherry pie! Chrismtas eve we went to the Utah Skating Oval with our friend Megan. It was her first time but she picked it up right away. Mikayl got her bearings again quickly after not being on the ice since last winter. We all spent the day there while Jefferson worked.
That evening we all went to the Martin's and had, what I called "a NY Deli" dinner which was very yummy. Then we listened to Jefferson read the "Night Before Christmas" with a different accent for every page. So hilarious! And we watched the annual "Christmas Vacation" movie.
After we got home we all got in our jammies and watched Elf before falling asleep pretty late. Mikayl let us sleep in the next morning until 7:30am. We took our time opening presents individually after reading the true Christmas Story about Christ's birth. The rest of the morning was spent relaxing together until Mikayl got picked up to see the rest of her family.
It was a total blizzard all Christmas Day. We were stranded in our house all day! It was so fun!
Oreo got a few new outfits from our friends the Stevenson's, and one of them was this adorable Santa outfit! Perfect in the snow storm.
