* Friday morning started out at Swig with a visit with my sweet friend over a Diet Coke and a pumpkin chocolate chip cookie.
Swig’s pumpkin choc chip cookies with cream cheese?
Not bad!
* Grocery shopped afterwards…
Holy Moly! Fry’s had some good deals!!
* Date night Friday night at the Gilbert temple.
It was just where we needed to be.
Things are so still and peaceful inside of the temple.
It was nice to just sit and be with my own thoughts.
* Tacos afterwards…
It was Joe’s first time at Rusty Taco and he LOVED it.
I love it too!
Their breakfast tacos + chips and queso are my favorite!
* Back at home for the rest of the night I worked on
There’s something very therapuetic about working around in my craft room with the windows open and Christmas music playing. Yes….Christmas music.
I could not hold off any longer!
* Saturday morning London and I hit up a cute, little local boutique nearby.
She felt like she had hit the jackpot that day because I let her get Mountain Dew Voltage on our Circle K run.
{Don’t judge}.
* The kids had dance all of Saturday afternoon.
Quick nourishment at the TB afterwards…
And yup…even more Etsy orders Saturday night.
{I đŸ’œmissionary ornaments!}
* Churchey-church on Sunday.
Carson gave a sweet talk in Sacrament meeting about ‘Asking the Lord in faith’. I was so proud of him. Hearing my children share their testimonies of our Savior makes my heart about want to leap right out of my chest in gratitude.
Also: the dude who sat in front of us in Sacrament wore his sunglasses backwards and Joe and I…being the 5 year olds that we are…could NOT stop laughing at the fact that we had to stare at our reflections for the ENTIRE meeting.
Also, also: Thank you to whomever hung up these sweet signs in the womens restrooms of our ward building.
Needed it!
* We spent Sunday evening over at my parent’s house.
It was our annual tra-dish of having the grandkids help my mom decorate her Christmas tree.
Also, per tradish, my brother made his famous Peanut blossom cookies.
Don’t let Joe fool you.
He didn’t help.
Just taste tested.
Lastly…we drew names for our ‘Cousins Gift Exchange’ which the kids love so much each Christmas!
It’s completely normal to have a doggy gift exchange for all of the dogs in the family too, right?
Please say yes.
We are slowly on our way to becoming that weird dog family.
Oooh that Mexican food looked so good and a Diet Coke .. yessssss yesss!!!
I need to go to the temple it’s been a few months.. nearest one is nearly 2 hrs away
