December was a crazy busy month (December always is), but we found a lot of time for family, friends, fun, & the Savior.
Aldi opened it's store here in Prattville, & I very much enjoyed it's selection of German goodies.
Trek took the boys to St. Nicholas Day (December 6th) with his German class. They had a bonfire, German food, & St. Nicholas even came & filled the kids' shoes with presents & candy. They had a great time.
Cadence enjoyed making Gingerbread houses with her friends at Young Women's.
As a family we made several trips to downtown Prattville to look at the beautiful lights there. The large Christmas tree was my favorite part of Christmas this year.
Canyon managed to lose his very first tooth in December. He was SO proud. The tooth fairy brought him a whole dollar for it.
Trek & Lorien actually decorated the outside of our house this year. We haven't done lights on the house in ages. It looked beautiful. I especially loved the Mickey Mouse projection lights Trek bought me for this season.
Trek flew to UT the week before Christmas to pick up Cadence's car from my parent's house. They sold us their old car so we'd have a 3rd vehicle for Cadence. It's old, but it's a good strong car & I think it will be great for getting her to & from school & seminary every day. While he was there, Trek picked up 10 loaves of his favorite UT brand bread as well as every apple beer in the entire Lehi area. (Apple beer is carbonated apple juice that is the closest thing we've found to German apfelschorle in the States. We love it & you can only find it in UT.)
It was a great month & it passed way too quickly.
