Christmas was pretty fun for us, we spent it at home and played games together. The day after we went to spend a few days at Nick's parent's home which was a total blast for Aviendha! She's definitely going through withdraws after being around her cousins for a week!
Nick, Tekara, and I went to see Sherlock Holmes. We liked it a lot except we were all really tired because we saw it later at night so I don't remember too much.
Tuesday we went with Carisa and Tim to do baptisms at the temple for some family names Carisa rounded up. It was a really great experience to do family names for the first time! I have a couple of 111 yr old poetry books that have been handed down from one of the females I was confirmed for. I grew really attached to the books when my Mom gave them to me. I have always been into older poetry so I felt somewhat of a special relationship with this dead relative I knew nothing about. I had always assumed that the work for her had already been done so it was an extremely special experience to be able to do work for her!
Wednesday Carisa, Tim, and Corbin came to stay with us for a few days until they moved down to their new place. We had a lot of fun! Nick was super excited to play all his favorite games with another male :) Corbin and Aviendha wreaked havoc but luckily only spent a few times in the corner (an amazing feat for what they are both capable of!)
Now our two weeks of insanity are over and I have a huge house cleaning job ahead of me tomorrow!!!
