The Weekend Before Christmas...

December 22, 2012
We gathered with Steven's family for a big Jensen family breakfast at Ben and Lara's. 
It was one big party!
 Can you believe we're ALL looking at the camera and smiling!?!  
 After the morning festivities, we didn't want to go home (Lara lives in Fruit Heights) so we drove to Ogden and went to a late lunch/early dinner at The Prairie Schooner restaurant. 
With Allison's continued obsession with everything Pioneer, this was a winning choice!
 We all got pictures in front of the wagon in the parking lot.

 Allison, all giddy with excitement.  Kyle was just happy to play along.
Gotta love a family photo in a covered wagon!  
 After dinner, we drove out to Willard Bay to see the Christmas Lights display.
First stop was a horse-drawn wagon ride to see the lights.

 After our wagon ride, Allison was itching to pet the horses. Another one of her loves.  Horses.

 After, we stopped in to visit one of Santa's helpers. 
Because you can never really tell Santa enough how much you REALLY want something for Christmas.
He is old, you know.  If he's anything like Mommy he has a terrible memory, too.  
  Kyle HATED this visit.
Did NOT want to sit on Santa's lap.
 But he didn't want to leave, either. 
He wanted to keep a close eye on that guy.
 Mommy's favorite light display...the nativity.  
Mommy LOVES nativities!
