Saturday Was A Busy Day!

Saturday was a busy day for us! Mommy was up by 5:30 to exercise, shower and get the grocery shopping done before kids started to wake up.  We spent the morning finishing up homework, chores, made dessert for Zeke's baptism, and got everyone ready for their different activities. We had several things going on, so we had to divide and conquer. 

Daddy took Gwen and Caleb up to Bountiful for Zeke's baptism, and Mommy, Adam, and Tessa got to attend Christmas Around the World at BYU with Ma and Pa. It was such a great show this year! They had some new dances and countries and we loved getting to spend some time with Ma and Pa. 

 After the show, Tessa went home with Ma and Pa and Adam and I headed over to the Santa Run at the Riverwoods. We cut it really close on time and looked pretty ridiculous changing into our Santa suits in the car, but we had fun laughing about it. 

We missed the beginning of the race, so we waited by the route for Aunt Gillian and Aunt Katy and then joined them. Well, Adam joined them. I remained a supportive cheerleader from the sidelines. 

Adam about died laughing when we pulled up and some kid yelled, "Look Dad!! It's Santa!" 

 I might wear the beard more often. It hides the scary braces quiet well.

 Adam made a cute little Santa, but his pants would not stay up. We laughed so hard when he would find his pants down around his ankles. Luckily, he wore basketball pants underneath. 

 It was a lot of fun and very festive. We will probably have to do this again some year.

 We got home from our day, tired and worn out, but there were still things to be done! The kids all wrote their letters to Santa and put their shoes by the tree. Father Christmas was supposed to stop by the house sometime that night and they wanted to be ready!
