Luminaria

If you want the pleasure of seeing Mary light up like a little kid, just take her to see some lights. This was seriously such a joy!

There were beautiful poinsettias.

Peppermint Lane actually smelled like peppermint.

There were REAL LIVE reindeer! Comet and Vixon to be exact. We learned so much. Who knew.

And best of all, was the quiet little section off the path where you walked through the beautiful statues of Christ that I have been dyiiinngggg to see ever since I learned about them. It was so peaceful and the pathway was filled with flickering lanterns as you walked through Christ's life and ministry. There was also a spot to walk to a "grove" of trees and see statues of the First Vision complete with Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ floating. It was amazing!!

We warmed up by these huge firepits, took pictures with our friends, and watched the big lights flash to music.

I would highly recommend going to Luminaria at Thanksgiving Point this holiday season!

take note

Mitch went in with 5 others guys and got season tickets to the Jazz. I had never been to a NBA game before so going to the season opener was a blast!

Now I consider myself a Jazz regular. I even know most of the player's names. It's a big deal.

Although I haven't committed to getting a jersey yet, I do have a t-shirt and it makes me feel pretty official ;)

It's been a fun year to watch them too. They don't quite compare to the rest of my family's beloved Warriors, but they hold their own and it's so fun to be a fan!

I've even gotten to go to a couple games with Jacob!
