Festive Weekend in Phoenix (November 23-25)

Since it's that time of year that has fun and festive things to do, we tried to find some activities that would help usher in the holiday season. One of our families favorite traditions that we've started over the last couple of years is our annual trip to the east valley to Organ Stop Pizza for Christmas music and pizza and then a visit to the Mesa temple to see the Christmas lights. This year since Tutus were here we got to include them in this tradition. As always, it was a great night and I love making memories and traditions with my little family.

Over the weekend we put the finishing touches on the decorations inside the house and the boys all together hung the Christmas lights outside. This was the first year that the boys were old enough to help and they wanted to each take a turn on the ladder hanging the lights. This was an especially big deal for Logan who is afraid of heights but constantly tries to over come it and not let it hold him back from doing things he wants to do. I was very proud of him and thankful that I have lots of guys that are going to be putting up Christmas lights for years to come!
