Weekend with Grandma

What a fun weekend! Friday night we went bowling. Gabe totally kicked my butt on his first time and of course Manuel won. Then Saturday Grandma came over and I made my homemade green enchiladas. We had limeade and fresh guacamole. After dinner Grandma read the kids Christmas stories and I made eggnog in edible peppermint shot glasses. So yummy!! Grandma contributed warm oatmeal raisin cookies. She also brought a funny move from the 60's. It was called "Man's Favorite Sport" and it was actually pretty funny-Manuel laughed a lot. Today Grandma went to church with us and took Paisley to nursery for the first time. She did so good! For dinner we had yummy homemade holiday appetizers. And tonight we are going to make pumpkin buttermilk pancakes with toasted pecans. Yum! Grandma is going to stay until the snow lets up.

We were busy this week making batches of my Miracle Foot Ointment. I have made about 200 containers of ointment so far and am looking for people to test out the products before we release them at the end of the month. Let me know if you want to test it for free! I am looking for about 25 testimonials.

We are excited for the holiday season. We finished all our shopping and just need to wrap now. Yeah!!!

Our Anniversary in Park City

Our 9 year anniversary is on the 1st and we celebrated it this weekend in Park City. Before we left on Friday, we decorated the house for Christmas with the kids. We hung up their new advent calendars from Oma. Now we are ready for December.

The kids went to Grandma Bev's house and also stayed with Grandpa Roger. They had fun. We stayed in Deer Valley at the Lodges. The same suite we had last year. We love it. Two fire places, a hot tub, state of the art kitchen, a huge tile shower with three shower heads and room for 6 people, beautiful furniture,rooms and view of the mountains. The suite is for sale for 2 million. Yeah, it is a nice suite.

We had a yummy dinner the first night at Butchers. Fried scallions and calamari in citrus honey sauce, serloin steak, asparagus and sweet potato fries, aha tuna with sweet and spicy sauce and yummy bread and cream soda. We celebrated that night with chocolates and Welch's blueberry pomegranate grape juice. The next day we worked out in the exercise room, enjoyed lunch at Quiznos and then saw the movie The Blindside. We loved it!! Then we went swimming in the pools. They were heated. For dinner we went to a Sushi place that was really yummy. The best sushi we ever had. We watched the BYU-Utah game on the big screen. Then that night we watched movies and utilized the hot tub and had yummy pie left over from thanksgiving. Then we had a toast with sparkling peach juice.

It was sad to leave but we were excited to give the kids their souvenirs. We bought them ornaments with their names on them and lollipops. We picked them up and Grandma made us all waffles. What a fun weekend.
