Josh had to go to St. George for work and my dad had to go to Vegas for work and it worked out that they had to go at the same time. It also worked out that at the same time the Aggies had a football game in Las Vegas. The two of them left and went down there and both worked and then they were able to go to the game on Saturday. My mom was also out of town, Lauren was still in Ecuador, and James and Lexi were both busy with school and work so it was just the kids and me for a few days.
Even though it was early in November I set up all our Christmas stuff. I love having it up but it always comes so fast and then you don't get to enjoy it for very long. So I just did it all on my own while Josh was gone and the kids were asleep.
Putting up the tree is always the biggest pain! I don't know what we were thinking when we bought a tree that was NOT pre-lit? It took forever!! But with a lot of diet coke and Christmas music I finished and it was so fun to sit by and relax!!
That same weekend that Josh was gone, my friend Bug's husband was also gone. So we met up during one of the days to let our kids play and then on Saturday night Bug invited us over to let the kids paint pinecones and decorate sugar cookies. They had a great time!! We ended up staying there for dinner time and had pizza. The kids had a blast and so did Bug and I!!
I love that London wore this Christmas dog collar around her head the whole night!!
I was reedy for Josh to get home, but I had a great weekend with my kids and was happy that Josh had a good time with my dad!
