Nutcracker part 1

December business continues. I was talking to Alli and she made a good point about how you can say you’re busy and not complain. So that’s what I’m doing. And I’m not always busy, just December is busy for everyone. 

I made Delaney’s traditional candy bouquet. We’ve had so much candy and cookies and chocolate already that I went heavy on the gum/mints this time. 

I went to my endocrinologist Thursday morning and at first I like her but am not a super fan lately. We don’t have a lot of options down here so we’ll see. I didn’t have anything else schedule that day so I got a lot done. 
Sarah G. came to visit and brought a sweet little gift. I miss seeing her from when we served together at church, and then even after she stopped coming but before she got a job, we’d still get together. Jobs really get in the way, which is definitely part of my hesitation in even getting a part time job. I will someday, but not right now. 😬

Alecia and I both volunteered for the recital and I decided (and I hope she agrees) that we both need to be ushers and park in the far corner where most people don’t come in and then we can just chat. This has worked for us twice and I think we’re onto something. 

Matt picked up Corey from the ward and they went to dinner, then he grabbed the girls because it was the families night to enjoy the show. 

Alecia always gets Noreen a ticket and it’s very sweet that she always comes to support the girls. 

The show was really fun. Nutcracker is weird and it’s not my favorite, but this is our second year with Ballet Caliente and we’d come before to see Lily and Emma, so I recognize the girls and can see their growth and they are amazing, so that made it a good experience. And Delaney loves to be on stage, and I’d sit through just about anything to support my kids. It was sooo cold after the show that we quickly grabbed pictures and headed home. 

It was a busy weekend so Matt, Delaney, and I went to bed around 10 and the big girls stayed up to watch a movie. My fomo wishes I could stay up with them but I was 💤💤💤
