Our branch had our "fancy" Christmas party. We dressed in our best and had a great dinner. I think I pressed the issue that we make it dressy. Well, I think everyone was happy about it. The night turned even better, when we got on a bus. Yep, a guy in my ward has a big bus. We went to a new member's house to sing to her family. Then we had a great idea to crash River City Ward's Christmas Party and sing to them. We had a blast suprising them. We then hopped back into the bus (singing songs at the top of our lungs and slurping cider and hot chocolate) to go look at Christmas lights. We really had so much fun. The bus was one of the greatest ideas ever. I have to say that it was one of the best ward Christmas parties ever.

Heidi and Errin singing songs such as Beyonce. Man, that was a new Christmas song.

Dustin, Chandra, Me, and John. I think the cider was a bit old. Some say it caused me to go a bit crazy.

Jenn Dunn and Me at the Party.

Some of the ladies at the party: Heidi, Errin, Ariane, Valorie, Jenn, Kristie, and Chandra.

John and I at dinner. Truly, the highlight of my night to sit by him :).

The group at the baby blessing for Baby Sean. He is such a cute baby with two cute parents (Dave and Alena).

Some of the Smith family at the Sacramento Temple. Danny, Ariane, Grandpa, Grandma, Aunt Sandy, Dad, Mom, Tanisha, and Brian.

Jenn and Koren at a little friend get together. Cute girls.

Dad with two of his brothers at the Bair Family Christmas Party. Uncle Ron, Dad, and Uncle Earle. We had the annual Bair Family Party. It was nice together with some of the Bair Family.

Allan turned two! We had a Nemo Party. He really is a cute and his favorite word is two. He goes around looking for two of anything.
Overall, December has been busy. Christmas is coming soon and we shall see what Santa will bring. I am pretty sure season 2 of Gilmore Girls may be under the tree. It will be the final season for my collection of all 7. It is a bit of a distraction for me, but I am proud to say that I have been productive and read a book in two days. That means that I have not been watching Gilmore Girls this whole break. That is better than I had previously planned. I actually may start another book. Life is good when I am not working :).

The whole time I am reading i am thinking that I I will comment on the whole dressing up thing, and how great it is to get dressed up, but ARIANE, I love the girlmore girls. I watch everday on ABCFamily at 4:00, or DVR it. I love that show and I love you for loving. Merry Christmas to US!!!
You looked great at the Christmas party! I especially loved your hair. I am looking to get a haircut soon and I think I might steal your style.
What a great holiday you had, especially the night of the branch party! Good times. Good times.
Three year old cider anyone? Anyone?
I miss Gilmore girls. I have watched every season all the way through at least 4 times. We should get a petition going for them to produce spin-off or reunion show or something.
Oh, and before I forget, You're gorgeous!!!
Hey Ariane! I want to go on a big bus ride! That looks like so much fun! ...I fournd you off of The Faulconer's blog! :)
