Merry Christmas

The annual Alexander Christmas Party was at our house this year. It was a lot of fun seeing and catching up with everyone. I think my mom was excited that we have a house that everyone can fit in now, we just didn't have enough chairs. You had to be 40 or older to sit on a chair. We traded white elephant gifts this year. My dad got a great picture of Uncle Tim in his Uof U gear at a game. My mom got a Twilight poster. They were hot items among the family. Of course, Tim & Sheila won the hat contest. The kids got some fun gifts in the traditional fish pond game. I look forward to next years party. FYI: I just finished updating my entire Europe trip, so check out my England, France & Italy posts.

Halloween


I have found my camera! After being lost for 6 weeks, I found it in my room, of all places. I hid it very well! So, here is my Halloween. I decided to make my costume this year, since it is so hard to find a modest one. I was a butterfly. Ashley & I made our skirts, wings and our attenae. I think we turned out pretty cute! I have to say, don't go to a singles dance with giant wings!!!


Here is my mom's costume. It came from her favorite place. Bailee was a cute kittie. Jen decided to be a butterfly as well. It was a bug theme this year.

































This was Andrea, Ashley and I at Witches Night Out at Gardner Village. It was super fun and I would recommend going next year. We used our cute skirts and made hats. It was a cold and fun night!
