The Pro Look Christmas Party

December 9, 2007

This is one of our favorite events all year. We have the most amazing employees! For us, it never feels like a work/office party, it’s just one big family. My cheeks are always sore from laughing at the end of this party, and there was no exception this year.

My apologies to Dusty {sigh}, I failed us on the foos ball tourney, but congrats to all the winners and rock stars!

Troy & Daphne, thanks for hosting the dinner, it was beautiful & delicious!Dessert & Games @ The Rhodesthank you,

This is somehow one of the few things I have done consistently with holiday traditions. Take the kids to see Santa. I abhor the long lines to see him (refuse to wait), so each year after Thanksgiving and before December rolls in we play hooky from school for the morning and visit Santa at the Mall. No line. After the “what we wants & bribes to smile for camera” we have lunch – then go to school – very late. Today was the day. Check mark. Also, for the first time ever, when I downloaded my pictures on my computer this afternoon (while talking on the phone) I obviously did something very wrong and the pictures are missing.

THANKSGIVING

Neighborhood Turkey Bowl –
KJ has been practicing this move at his “little gym sports class”a hot air balloon floating by…This is one of my favorite pictures of Myla, it totally looks like she could be planning this mid-air pose and she’s So happy.KJ lasted about 10 minutes of the game and he was done, so he hung out on the sidelines with Sela.
We had Our “real” Thanksgiving Day dinner @ Sundance with Danny. If I’m not having a holiday dinner in our home, Sundance is my favorite because the atmosphere is so cozy and the food is incredible!

Thanksgiving EVE

November 22, 2007

This was so good! We took the kids this morning to kick-off their Thanksgiving break, 5 days of no school. I love having all my kids home all day, so fun! We are staying in town this week so we’re packing it full of activities. After the movie we had lunch at “Happy Sumo,” everyone needs some sushi before turkey all week… Then Kiana and I went and had our eyebrows waxed this afternoon. My FAVORITE place to get this done is at Nordstrom. The Anastasia counter. Kelly Pack is the only master esthetician who does it at the Orem Nordstrom, and she is awesome! If you have never had your eyebrows waxed or have never had it done by an Anastasia trained person,
