Christmas in Color - Idaho Experience

I was able to go to Christmas in Color while Tony & I were here in Boise, Idaho and this was really my first time going to something like this. I know Utah and other states do it but I just never took the chance to go.

Luminaria Experience at Thanksgiving Point

Heading in to Thanksgiving Point there was a huge light up board that said the tickets for Luminaria were sold out and I worried so hard that we didn't have a chance of seeing the lights after driving about 45 minutes from Kearns to get to Lehi. I had tried to buy tickets online but the link wasn't working or the page just kept refreshing. So odd.

The Forgotten Carols - Re-imagined!

I met my friend Christine at the high school in Murray to watch The Forgotten Carols. This year had a new spin and we were able to see the "Re-imagined" version! Our first time getting to see this and their first year doing it this way. I wish I had taken a picture with Christine - she's a fun friend and always down to do something interesting.

Christmas House in Ridgecrest, CA

Tony & his wife live not too far away from us and do an amazing job decorating their yard as an interactive activity for families during the Christmas season. Keep reading to see some more of the ways they change their yard - it's a lot of work!

Christmas in Idaho! (Part 1)

I know I have taken a break from blogging again for awhile because life just got way too busy for me to be able to keep up. Thought I'd drop a few pictures here (thanks to my dad for some of these) of Tony & I in Idaho for Christmas. It just worked out better this year to be here instead of California and we may continue to come in the future depending on what happens with life.

#ShareTheGift Video Shoot

I signed up mid-November for an event happening in Provo that is going to be on The Piano Guys channel around Dec 12th. I got there around 2pm and got checked in. Got some instructions, my costume and then waited for it to get dark.

Grand America Hotel Window Displays!

See that hotel across the street? It's the Grand America Hotel in downtown SLC.

Hogle Zoo Lights

Hooray for $3 Thursday nights at the zoo. We had tried to go the week before but it was too snowy and cold. We ended up going the last Thursday of December and it was not snowy but boy, it was cold. Too cold and I did not have a very enjoyable time but we stuck it out and I got some good pictures.

Pulled up to my parents house in the afternoon on Christmas Day after leaving Tony's parents house and found my brothers outside having a snowball fight. You can see a snowball flying right in the middle there I think.

Christmas In Idaho Part 1

On our way to Idaho on Tuesday after my Christmas work party. If it wasnt for that, we would have left to go to Idaho on Monday evening when we got off work probably. Oh well!

All The Pretty Lights

Tony's cousins who live in SLC invited us to come to the Christmas devotional with them this past Sunday because they had gotten a bunch of tickets. I enjoy going to events at the Conference Center on temple square so I said sure, we would love to go.

We sat in the balcony so we had a really good view.

Festival of Trees!!

First time ever checking out this local event that raises money for the Primary Children's Medical Center. Over 700 decorated Christmas trees, plus gingerbread houses, quilts, wreathes, oh my!

Get ready for a picture overload! Quality of the pictures is just my cell phone so some are not the best.
