Dec. 20: Last day of school. I went in for the kids parties, which is always fun, but not so much with the little tornado around, it's a challenge to keep him from getting into everything in the classrooms. We went and picked Brooklyn up from school as well and are so looking forward to Christmas break.
Dec. 21: It has been snowing and snowing it is so awesome. We spent ALL day today playing outside from 8-5. Bro. Flower called and asked if we wanted to come down and go snowmobiling, which was so fun. we hung out there for a couple of hours and then came back home and did some more sledding out in the field. It was a great day!
Dec.22: Christmas program at church, had to play the organ and piano for choir it was kind of a crazy day
Dec 23: Took the boys into town with me to get a few last minute things. Chas got to come home early and we had a fun night sleeping under the tree and watching Mr. Krugers Christmas.
Dec. 24: We had the Flowers over for dinner and the Christmas program. I always have this ideal vision in my head of how the Christmas program should go and it's always spriritual and enlightening, but it never turns out that way. CArson didn't want to be a shepherd and kept taking his hat off, Beckett wanted to hold Baby Jesus the whole time, B & B were fighting over which one got to wear the robe for their costume, oh well. We just keep doing it and someday they will catch on right! Too Funny! Beckett was so excited for Santa to come he could not go to sleep, he kept running into our room, asking if Santa had come yet. Finally he fell asleep about 11.
Dec. 25: Kids woke up at 5:30. Santa had left them a note in the front room," Hutchins kids big and small, your present wouldn't fit up here at all, down the stairs you'll have to go, Merry Christmas & HoHoHo!" They were so excited to see the Air Hockey Table he left for them. Carson had a fever all day and so he spent most of the day on my lap, which I was totally content just to sit and snuggle him and watch everyone else. This is might have been the first day in my life I have stayed in my pj.'s all day long, crazy! We chose not to have anyone over on Christmas day, and let me tell you it was so nice!! Just relax all day, a whole day, who would've thought? It was awesome! We had such a wonderful Christmas and are truly blessed.
Dec. 26: Chas went back to work, I took all the kids to the stake center to play ball, but everyone was tired and sick and complaining and coughing so that didn't last very long. We came home and watched movies and such.
Dec. 27: We left for Boise around 11:00, which is a world record for us, I couldn't even believe we left that early. We got to Ezzie's made pizza and then went to the Meridian Village, a new winter fun spot. The older 3 got to try out skating for the first time,. poor little JoJo was pretty sick and had a miserable time, falling on the ice and being freezing cold. The other 2 had a great time and were kind of getting the hang of it at the end. It was miserably cold though and we didn't stay for too long. There was Christmas music, skating rink, lots of Christmas lights, water fountain show and lots of heaters and fire pits, which is where I spent most of my time! Saturday we went and played basketball with everybody, which was pretty fun
