Update

I love Christmas time so much but it feels like it goes too fast. I just don't feel like I can get my fill. I just want to do Christmas things all the time. My kids just want to watch their regular shows and I can't understand it. I just want to watch Christmas stuff all the time. I even watch really cheesy bad acting movies for the sake of Christmas. I can't help it, if it's a Christmas based show I get sucked in even if I think it's terrible! Ha. 

Last week I was busy getting out our Christmas cards and taking neighborhood treats. I bought and packaged gifts for all of my kids' primary teachers. We went and delivered most of them last night. We ordered all of our Christmas gifts online and we are having them shipped to Scott's parents house. Scott is going to have to do an amazing packing job on our way home. 

We did a service project for our Relief Society meeting this month. 8 of us were able to go downtown and help serve in a soup kitchen. I don't know if it's the small town girl in me but it's really weird to realize that I live in a city that's big to have soup kitchens. I don't know anyway sometimes the realities of city life is weird to me. It was pretty neat to see the work that goes on down there.

Piper quote: "I'm allergic to this dinner." Ha. She said that because it was a dinner she didn't like and also because they have a friend in the ward who is allergic to almost everything. Every time she comes over her mom has to leave me with an Epi Pen and instructions. No joke she is allergic to dairy, gluten, pork, beef, nuts. You can't believe what that limits her diet to. Like who knew that fruit snacks have pork in them? Or that taco seasoning has gluten. Crazy. Anyway needless to say because of her my kids have taken on a whole new interest about allergies and keep asking me what they are allergic to.
