Okay, here is a quick synopsis of the past few days.
On Tuesday we went with my family to the Zoo Lights at the Phoenix Zoo. It was totally fun and the girls had a blast. Even Tiffany. She loved looking up at the trees at the different colors. They had a giraffe at the zoo named Jango that you could tell him what you wanted for Christmas. Elle asked for TMNT (surprise surprise) and Ashlee asked for Roller skates (the first we have heard her mention these). Afterwards, we went to my parents and ate Pie from Village Inn. Yum Yum!!
Aaron really loved this tree!
On Wednesday, I pulled Aaron away from putting up Christmas lights to join Ashlee at school for her Thanksgiving Feast. It was really fun to see Ashlee show us off.
On Thursday we ate, and ate, and ate. And then Aaron went with the men to the ASU game. That's enough on that topic - it's too painful to talk about it.
On Friday, Aaron, Tiffany, and I went to JCPenny's at 3am to purchase a Christmas tree for our new home. We were the 8th in line and we were able to get everything we needed there, at Sears, at Target, at Harbor Freight, and many other stores. We were done shopping by 8am and joined my parents and Michael at Village Inn for breakfast.
Friday night we went out to Aaron's brother's home and had a Johnson family get together. His two brothers Rod and Kevin and their families were visiting from out of state. It was really fun to see everyone again.
Saturday we kept putting up Christmas decorations and tried to clean the house.
Sunday, went to church and then we went to the Temple lights that night. It was really nice to wear a jacket and feel a little cold. It is so sad that here in the valley, anything under 70* is the dead of winter.
So that leaves us to today. Nothing going on today except more cleaning and decorating. Gotta love the holidays!!!
Here is our home - only a quarter of the way done. YIKES!!! More pictures to follow!!!

Sounds like you guys had a great vacation. The blue tree was beautiful, and your house looks great it doesn't even need any more done. But be sure to post pictures of it all finished. Enjoy all of these fun times with the girls, as they get older it gets a little harder to please them:-) Tiffinay is just a little doll all of her sweet little picture make me smile. BTW I need your address or phone number sometime soon.
Love, Lorena
Hey Sarah,
I found you! I have been reading all about your family. You keep me laughing. You are awesome and it has been a blast to read you blog. There is so much I didn't know. I can't wait to see what your house will look like with even more Christmas lights!
