Weekend Extravaganza!

     Well, this weekend was quite eventful!  Stephen and I met up with Rachel, Aaron, Johnny and Dixie and her family at Disneyland.  It was a good thing I packed my hat and mittens.  Brrrrr!  I have been such a wimp when it comes to being cold now!  Anyway, the castle was breathtaking and the parade was a hit.  I love fast-passes.  It's really the only way to go.... and my brother in law, Aaron, is a professional.  After Disney we went to the beach house for hot chocolate and a hilarious game of "Boxers or Briefs" which is a new board game we got for some laughs.  Similar to Apples to Apples.  

     The next morning we woke up and went to the Orange Balloon.  Unfortunately the wind was too strong and we were about 10 minutes too late.  They had to cancel the rest of the flights for the day.  So all we could do was take a picture of what could have been.  So sad, indeed!  I hope to return to ride on that great helium Orange Balloon!  

      Saturday night was awesome!  Steve and I went to BJ's Pizza for dinner with the fam and then came back to LA for the John Mayer concert.  He is PHENOMENAL!   I mean, I knew he was great and all.... but seriously?  He's got skills.  I know this sounds wierd, but I think my favorite number was his acoustic version of "Free Falling."  Even though it's not his original stuff.... it was beautiful.  

      Ok, all is well here.  We finally put up our christmas tree--- aaah!  I've never done it sooo late in December!  We'll get about a week and a half out of it before we go up to Utah.  I have to be honest in saying I haven't even gotten to buy ONE Christmas present for anyone yet!!  I'm in serious trouble.....
