A Not-So-Perfect-Weekend

Sunday, December 13, 2015


I had one of those weekends where nothing turned out the way I planned or envisioned. I had some fun activities for my little family to do and let's just say things could have gone better. Maybe one day I will look back with much fondness. At least we tried to make some good memories right?

On Friday night we went to see the Christmas lights at the Mesa Temple. They were beautiful! And the weather was ideal, Ty and I didn't even wear a jacket. We put Lizzie in the stroller but lately all she is such a busy body and won't stay in for long. So, we had to let her run around a bit. We chased her around and she got fussy really quick. We tried to get some nice pictures of us as a family but, the fussy toddler made it impossible. I still got some good shots while there, though.












I with I could have been in this cute picture with them!


On Saturday there was a little "snow day" in a parking lot here in Mesa. Basically some man made snow was dumped unto a parking lot. There was going to be a Santa there too, so I thought it would be fun to take Lizzie. However, she didn't want anything to do with the snow. I guess she is like her parents in that regard. By the time Santa came out she was cranky because it was almost her nap time. Much to my disappointment, we left before Lizzie got to meet Santa since she was on the verge of a meltdown. So that is why you won't be seeing any cute pictures of Lizzie on Santa's lap this year.

"Yeah Mom, I'm not touching that"


Hey there was one highlight to the weekend, we went to our ward Christmas party and had a great time there! I know things aren't always going to go according to plan, that's part of life. I just gotta roll with whatever comes my way. On a happier note, I do love this time of year, and being able to spend it with my family. I hope you are all having a good Christmas season so far!
