Simplify

This year for Christmas, Dee's family has decided to simplify things. We decided not to do gifts for the siblings or for the grandkids. We already have so much and are so blessed, we didn't feel like it was necessary to receive another gift that we most likely don't need. So the adults went out to dinner instead-without any kids-which was the greatest gift ever! We went to Tepanyaki (when Hayden found out that's where we were going, he was mad at us-even though we had picked them up some McDonald's-he would much rather have gone with us---I can't say that I blame him!)

We had a great night, it was very relaxing and we could actually all enjoy being together. I think we should do it again real soon!

I tried to take a picture of the onion volcano for my kids, but it didn't work so well, with my flash the flame didn't show up. Oh well.
