We started a new tradition this year, we went on a little "trip" to SLC. We stayed at the Raddison. The kids were thrilled to be in a hotel. They went swimming and in the morning we walked around the city creek mall and at breakfast at Kneaders. Christmas eve and Christmas Day were lovely this year. Kids were so well behaved, good sports about all the crazyness. After we had partied on Christmas day, we couldn't get anybody to hang out with us, so we went driving down main street looking for something to eat. I was thinking fast food, but the line to McD's was 20 cars long, so we ended up across the street at a Japanese steak house. I was in my sweats eating a steak dinner. The kids haven't stopped talking about the volcano onion, and the fire right on our table. They were so good. I told Josh, everybody around us is probably jealous of our "perfect" children. We missed Grandma and Grandpa Mendenhall, but we were able to skype with them several times so they could be a part of our day. Josh bought the kids a go cart for their big present and lucky for them, it was snowing all weekend, so they tied the sleds behind and had a hay day. Milo came in and said "this is the best Christmas ever!"
