Best Birthday Ever!

For my birthday this year Nate surprised me with a week of Christmas activities! It was awesome! Three of the nights I had a date with one of the kids! It was so fun to go on a special date with each of my kids! What's more--I totally felt the joy of the Christmas season at each of the events!

 So Caleb's date we first went to pizza hut and got his Book It pizza! He has really turned into a great reader! He loves having a goal to earn a pizza too!

Yum! The funny part was where we picked up our pizza wasn't a dine in so we had to go to Carl's jr and eat our pizza!! 

We took funny pictures all night long! 

Then we went to a Kids' and Christmas Concert. It benefited Children's Justice Center. There was singing, dancing, all sorts of entertainment...but most of the concert Caleb asked "Is it over yet?" 

Half way through the concert someone fell asleep! I wondered whether or not to just leave but figured I might as well finish it! So I held a sleeping boy and carried him all the way to the car! (Yup, he's just like uncle Blake!) 

On my real birthday we went out to dinner and then saw the lights in Ogden! 

The lights were fantastic!  So fun and not even crowded! 

We even got to see Santa there! I was super surprised Carder would sit on his lap! 

Ty probably would have hurt Santa's lap because he is so big! So he just stood by him! 

They also have these little houses and a village to walk through and see! Great place to go during the Holiday season! 

The next day Ty and I went on a date to see the Forgotten Carols! I've had the CD since I was a kid but I've never seen the play! It was awesome. Ty liked it too. It was sure fun being with just me and my buddy! 

And last but not least Mara and I went to the Nutcracker Ballet! It was so fun seeing this production with just my Sweetie! She loved it! She loved the costumes, dancing, music, everything! It was very well done and I can't wait to take her again next year!
