I love the day after Christmas! The kids were all just SO happy playing with all their new things - I was kept busy opening up packages and getting xbox games started, but it was a fun relaxed day. I loved finding the kids in their own little quiet places busy with their new toys...
That evening, Emily lined up babysitters for us, and we all went out to see Les Mis at the Studio Movie Grill (my most favorite place to see movies!). Aaron and Stef were there too - Aaron was too busy looking over the menu to turn and smile ;)
The next evening we had an early New Years Eve party at the Lee's house, since we were going to be in Utah over the actual New Year holiday. We ate food, played a lot of CatchPhrase and drank plenty of soda...
One of our Christmas gifts was a zoo membership. It's been a year since we had one - it was fun to go back and we look forward to many many more visits...
And we went out to Five Guys downtown with Ben during his lunch break...
That evening the girls gave me the spa treatment in their bedroom - complete with hand massage and pedicure...
aw... this is the life :)
I love how big claire is getting!
ReplyDeleteSo good that you have a zoo pass again. I like your zoo down there.
ReplyDeleteIt's a fun place to take the kids to explore, play and run.
That's code for wear them out!
