The Great WALT DISNEY

"If you can dream it, you can do it."

"I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter."

"All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me... You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you."

"All your dreams can come true if you have the courage to pursue them."

'Tis the Season...of getting fatter

Does anybody else kinda dread this time of year for that reason? I mean, I like to eat, but the continuous treats from little gifts, church activities, work parties, friend parties, family parties...it's enough to kill someone! Or at least make it impossible to button the pants and I start to kind of fell sick all the time and half of it I want to just throw away. I'm a big time sucker for the salty stuff like the crackers and dip and finger foods yada-yada...the cookies and pastery crap don't even appeal to me for some reason. Anyway, on another note, I've gone to see the Christmas lights a couple times at Temple Square already and it has been such awesomely "warm" weather here until about 2 days ago and then the snow hit. So what I'm saying is, it was soooo much fun to go see the lights with a jacket and gloves and to feel cozy the whole time instead of freezing! Thank Heaven above for the late start to winter here!!!
This was the first trip of the season with Lisa and Brittany :) I also went last weekend with Amber, John, Kyle, and MJay (Cedar City boys), but Am took pictures that time. It was MUCH more crowded last weekend!

Yes! I agree with the junk at Christmas time. I always end up feeling so sick but I hate to see such good food go to waste so I almost always end up eating it all. The lights look beautiful! Thanks so much for stopping to see us. We loved having you guys!
