Christmas & the New Year!



Ok, so I'm finally getting to this... Christmas was great. Jordan and I stayed here in Utah, and had Christmas Eve over at Shaunie & Bart's house (ok, so it was just me--Jordan had to work) and then later that night, (or should I say morning! It was past midnight) we went over to my in-laws' house, Dan and Lenore. It was really fun. Although, I don't really have pictures. I've been waiting to get them from my mother-in-law. But here's a picture of Jordan with our tree in the background...he's so cheesy :)


This year, Jordan's big gift to me was Celine Dion tickets for her concert at the Energy Solutions Arena this November! YES, I have to wait until November of THIS year to see her, but hey it is WORTH THE WAIT. We saw her in Vegas when we were dating (my 25th birthday present!) and it was amazing. Don't think she looks that great in this photo-looks like a lot of fake big hair to me... hmm... BUT she's amazing, and I'm excited!!



Another fun thing we did during Christmas was make caramel apples to give to the neighbors! I must say, we were pros...well, I learned how to make them in Las Vegas with Michelle (we helped her friend make caramel apples for her husband's clients) and Jordan is just a natural :) He dipped the apples in caramel, then after they cooled in white chocolate, and I sprinkled them with cinnamon and sugar and crushed pecans. YUMM! Everyone loved them! Here is a picture. Aren't they cute!? And now we have the stuff to do them next year too--well, if we have the energy! They are pretty time consuming!

Well, that's about all I need to say about Christmas and New Years festivities! It was great to be with family and friends!
