Christmas Break Fun

 The kids have enjoyed blowing and catching the sticky bubbles they got in their stockings.

They loved spending their Cafe Rio gift cards.
Damon and I went over to Paul's school and helped out a little bit with changing the library decorations from Christmas to Winter. And Damon rode his heelies all through the halls of the school. :)
We enjoyed some time in the hot tub.
Tessa watched Sadie for five days and loved that. Roxanne is getting married this month and moving to Salt Lake. We're so happy for her, but also going to miss her and Sadie.
Paul went and hung out with Chad and his parents. They went to a movie, hung out at home, and left fun selfies on their mom's phone. :)
Rockwell went to Luminaria with Audrey and her family.
Paul and the kids went to a family party at Adria's house. I have been having a terrible time with my allergies, and had reactions at three different houses in a week. My best guess was pets that were making me react, and so I decided to not risk it by going to Adria's house where I know they have a lot of animals. I was sad to miss out on the party, but Paul and the kids enjoyed going. They picked up dinner at McDonalds on the way home and Damon thought this nugget man was so funny/creepy. Haha.
We got the kids an all-day pass to Hang Time for Christmas. That was a great way to spend a day over the break.
Damon loved playing dodgeball, and Rockwell and Tessa did the climbing area a couple times and thought that was so much fun.
A student gave Paul a gift certificate to a Himalayan Salt Cave at a yoga studio. We read that it's supposed to help with your sinuses and allergies, and so I thought it was worth a try. Paul wasn't too interested in going, but Tessa thought it sounded fun. So she and I went and did a session.
It was very relaxing. I have no idea if it will really help much with my sinuses, but it was fun to go have a little girls outing with my Tessa Girl and relax for a while.
Damon had his first game for his basketball season. He had a great time playing!
We got some snow on Saturday and Tessa and Damon wanted to go sledding. I didn't want to be out in the cold, so I sat in the car and read while they were sledding. It was a win-win. :)
Paul and I went to dinner and saw The Boys in the Boat. It was a good movie, and very nice to go out on a date with Paul.

  1. I'm glad that you had a win win with staying in the car and reading while the kids sledded.
