Winter Fun

-- The first week in December my parents came down to stay in the Kimball. We met up with them and headed out for dinner at the Lion House Pantry; complete with a private performance of a few Christmas carols for Highland High's Madrigals, and to check out the lights on Temple Square. We learned from a bad experience last year to never see the lights on opening night. This night was a little chilly, but not nearly as many people.

-- The week we headed out to the Grand America Hotel to see the gingerbread houses. These weren't your ordinary graham cracker houses. They were built local pastry chef's from hotels or the ski resorts. They were having a silent auction for the houses, they proceeds would benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation.



-- The week after that we hit up the Zoolights at Hogle Zoo. It was a great night to go out. Ethan loved the lights. They have a lot more light displays then they did the last time we went, two or three years ago. The best part was seeing the tiger cubs active and playing around with each other.
