Mo Tab and stuff

We were so lucky this year and we got tickets to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's Christmas concert with guest star...DAVID ARCHULETTA! It was so good. And, I have to admit...David Archuletta is pretty cute. He's just so endearing and genuine. He did a great job, as did the choir. We had a really fun time. with my parents, dan's parents, and my sister and brother in law. Afterwards, we walked around temple square. The lights are beautiful, and the temple is exquisite. It really got me in the spirit of Christmas.

Monday was the annual Schofield family Christmas party. It was, as usual, full of food, laughter, singing, and of course, KIDS! Dan has 20 nieces and nephews, and only 4 were not in attendance. (we missed you Matt & Dano) It was a blast as usual. We had a cute little program complete with nativity. Watching the kids open their presents was so cute. The little girls all got pjs and pillow pets...which were a huge hit, and the little boys all got BB guns. They were ecstatic!
After the party, for some reason, the boys always have a contest to see who can touch the fan in the family room. It always starts with some one trying to convince Dan's brother Peter to try. He is probably the worst jumper of the bunch, (no offense, pete) which is why they always want him to do it. Then they all take turns running from the hall into the family room to see if they can touch the fan. It is absolutely hilarious. Sadly, my camera is not super great. So i couldn't capture everyone in the air...and some people not at all. But here is the majority...
Dan & Jake
Peter & Tom
Brad & Josh
And, yesterday, we woke up to this winter wonderland outside. I'm pretty excited to have snow for Christmas. It's just not the same without it. We got about a foot. Sadly, it was rainy today, so it is sort of mushy now.

PS) Christmas is just around the corner...today is Christmas Eve, Eve, Eve. Haha, remember when you used to do that in elementary school? ...ok, who am I kidding? I still do it. (obviously)_
