Aaron and Jessica

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I know we sure did.

It is tradition on Christmas Eve with Aaron's family every couple does a Gingerbread House. I love it. It is so much fun!

On Sunday Alyse had her baby. She is such a doll.

Congrats Ryan and Alyse!!!! She is Beautiful

On Friday Aaron and I went up to Temple Square and saw all of the beautiful lights. It was cold but we were bundled up. That is one of our favorite things to do around Christmas time. I just love the lights and the nativity and the temple glowing, it is so pretty. Before Temple Square we ate at Iggy's it was yummy. I just love date night. They are so much fun especially when it is the Christmas season there are so many different things to do.

I love the big red tree

A couple of weeks ago my brother Josh came out and stayed with us for about a week. We had a lot of fun. We did all sorts of activities. It was a busy week we did everything from the movies to sushi to paint balling.

On Thursday all the girls in my family went and saw New Moon. It was too much fun. We all made shirts and my grandma bought everyone New Moon scarves to wear. We bought our tickets for a Team Edward themed theater. Courtney and I personally wanted Team Jacob but we got overruled. But needless to say every time Jacob was on screen shirtless I would say the theater was Team Jacob :) I loved the movie! Of course though the movies will never compare to the books. We all had fun taking pictures. I cant wait to go see it again and again and again.

So this year for Halloween I was in charge of the party for Aaron's family. We did a murder mystery dinner. It was such a blast I didn't know what to expect. It was called Deadly Ever After. The characters consisted of Sherlock Holmes, Red Riding Hood, Alice, Prince Charming, The Count, Wicked Witch, Rapunzel, The Mad Hatter, Hamlet, Juliet, Snow White, Robin Hood, John Silver and Katherine from the Taming of the Shrew. It was a lot more work than I thought it would be, but I had fun buying all of the decorations and putting it all together. It turned out so good. Everyone did awesome on their costumes. Thanks everyone for coming! And a special thanks to Ashlee and Jason for bringing the tables and chairs!
