Grandkids and Grandma Outing (and moms too)

We wanted to continue our tradition with Grandma Vicki to see the SLC Temple lights and dinner but we sure did pick a CrAZy night to do it....We forgot that it was the first Presidencies Christmas Devotional and it was PACKED everywhere!!  After driving around trying to find parking places for 2 cars, standing out in the parking lot to save one parking space, finding out they had closed the paking garage and wouldn't let Mandi in, her dropping off some of the kids, losing each other and not having phone service and then finding out that our wait for dinner was over an hour-and-a-half, we jumped back in our cars (Mandi still couldnt get in the parking garage) and headed back to the south end of the Valley to catch a movie and dinner, away from all the craziness. All of the movies had already started so we skipped the movie and ended up at the Myan. The kids had a lot of fun watching the cliff divers and the food was delicious!!The night started out REALLY crazy but turned out really good.  I love that we have kept doing this tradition!  

We stopped for one second to get our traditional family picture in front of the big tree in the JS Building




Our flaming dessert

making smashed pennies before we were seated

I think they were staring at the dessert on fire
