Every year we have missed the downtown Prescott court house lighting for one reason or another and we were determined to make it happen this year. And we almost did. We were driving around downtown trying to find a parking spot when they turned the lights on, we missed it by 2 blocks and 5 minutes. We still made the most of our little excursion since we were already there. It was C.O.L.D. and snowing so we didn't linger too long but we made our way around the square enjoying the twinkling lights once and then headed back to our car.
We stopped in at Taco Bell for dinner and for the first time ever we didn't order enough food! Nathan must be going through a growth spurt because he downed his 2 tacos and a plate of nachos and still needed more. Bracken has developed a love for nacho cheese so he requested his own order of nachos as well. By the time we had received and eaten our 2 orders more than an hour had passed, so much for fast food.
The Christmas Devotional is always a highlight for us. We enjoyed it snuggled up in quilts as we ate sandwiches and cookies.
With all the cold weather we have been enjoying the boys have been sporting their winter gear convinced that it will snow any day. We have had a few light snow falls but nothing has accumulated. Bracken was so excited for the snow that he slept in his coat and gloves three nights in a row.
Sunday morning we woke up to a few inches on the ground but by the time we were home from church the snow was gone and Bracken was devastated. Monday we met up with Papi, Grandma and Grandpa at Alfonso's in Prescott and they still had snow. Bracken was thrilled! He was wearing his cowboy boots and he soon realized that they didn't keep his feet nearly as warm as his snow boots.
