Daddy Time

Daddy had to go back to work yesterday, but we had him for an entire week, plus weekends of uninterrupted family time.  It was lovely.  It was a well-deserved vacation for all.  Even the routine activities were made better by having daddy/husband around.  We took a number of smaller outings, like exploring Cabella's and perusing Lowe's, but we also ventured further out.  Thanks to a wonderful daddy/husband, I was able to attend a temple endowment session.  And, we spent the better part of a day at the city zoo (in 60 degree weather!)  We caroled on doorsteps and delivered goodie bags.  We acted out the Nativity story--twice.  We hosted twelve people for Christmas dinner.  We worked in the yard together.  We looked at Christmas lights.  We had a movie night.  We snuggled, read books, and enjoyed being together.  Hooray for Christmas vacation!
