Merry Christmas! Today was such a low key Christmas, being just the two of us. We had a pretty usual day, and then Husband made us an absolutely delicious cranberry beef thing for dinner.
Hope you guys had a good Christmas as well.

I have caught the dreaded flu, and have an upper respiratory infection. This happened on Thursday - after having flown home from Utah (did I get it on the flight? From family members/friends? We'll never know) so because this is my third time being sick since the end of October, I finally went and saw a doctor. He diagnosed me and sent me on my way, prescribing plenty of rest among other things. I think Husband feels badly for me, because he let me open one of my presents early - a Lego! I got to put it together tonight and it was so lovely.
And then the fam sent me this photo, and it hurt my heart to be missing everyone this year.
We flew hone yesterday, and it was a relatively early flight. Not that the flight was - but we had to leave at 8:00 AM, so there was no time for dilly-dallying in the morning. We got to the airport, and as we were walking through to terminal B (which, if anyone flying out of SLC airport knows - is a dang trek) we ran into some family! We ran into our niece, who was flying in for Christmas from Hawaii. We were so happy to see each other for even just those few minutes.
I got to babysit the fellas tonight, and first we did a little shopping to grab some stuff. Epifanio had many feelings here, and just had to take a minute.
Then he rallied and had a great time. At dinner, he asked for a brownie and I told him he couldn't have a brownie until he finished his dinner. So he absolutely scarfed it down.
Then, after eating, he actually didn't eat his brownie, which made me laugh. We got in our PJ's and brushed our teeth, and were ready for sleeping.
We did Christmas with Husband's family yesterday, and he got them all swag from his new job to wear in these cold months. Then my SIL asked me to snap some photos for them, in their matching swag, for their Christmas card. I'm obvs a very good photographer.
Back in Utah this weekend! My sister won(? I don't know that it's a winning, but it certainly is a lottery type situation to get these tickets) tickets to see the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square, and we were hyped. Lea Solanga was going to be the guest this year, and I was so excited. So we had spent the day celebrating Christmas with my family (since we won't be here on actual Christmas Day) and then headed up. Due to bad traffic, we had wasted a good chunk of our pre-concert-dinner time in various traffic jams. We then tried to get faster food, and the only one that we could get in time was Subway. Which we then ate whilst walking as fast as we could in the freezing ass cold. I had to snap a pic of us doing this, to remember the insanity. Never put the two of us in a stressful situation - we are the anxiety twins and don't deal well with it!
It wasn't a great concert, but we had fun together, and that's what matters.
Look at this baby in the kitchen, pretending to cook.
Who is she kidding? She can't cook! She's a baby!
I found all of my Christmas themed Lego sets and did them all this week, wanted to make sure that I had them up for decor. Here is Santa's sleigh.
Love it!
A couple of weeks ago, Husband and I were able to score Annual Passes for Disneyland. They went on sale for exactly one day, and we had happened to hear about it through a friend. I got online immediately and stayed there for about an hour or so, before finally being able to buy them. And now, we just get to pop in when we have time! I love it! We went today for a little and it was just so lovely.
Now that I have my regular tree up, time to get the Lego tree up as well.
Took much shorter than a regular tree, of course.
I asked Epifanio, via a video, if he missed me. Then I got this video back.
What an absolute punk. I think he's making fun of me in this video, can't even believe it.
