Two posts in a day, you all must be very lucky! (kidding, of course.)
I am going to town on my list as evidenced by the following photographs.
#51: Go to a taping of Good Things Utah. Che' and I did this a few Mondays ago and despite the mishap of being a tad bit late for taping, we had a most fabulous time. The audience was much smaller than we anticipated and everything was very low key. It was a great time. We even got a few prizes for just showing up: The Forgotten Carols DVD, candied nuts, and a berry trifle. Mmmmmm. We will definitely be doing that again.
#7: Get a picture of Hallie on Santa's lap. Accomplished, but not without a fight, as you can see! We went with the whole fam to a a Christmas play by Pickleville playhouse in Logan a few weekends ago. We had the time of our lives. Uncle Lynn won an ipod, we had a feast of a meal, we got to see our old friend, Eli (who happened to be a performing missionary in Nauvoo 4 years ago when my Grandma was on a mission there. We got really into his performances because he was just so hilarious, so we went every single night to the same play while we were there and then got a picture with him after each and every performance. Pretty sure he was quite alarmed to see us again....), and to top it all off, the roads were terrible for the drive home, so a good number of us crashed at my Aunt Linda's house. There were bodies everywhere. I got the couch and the combination of the flannel pajamas that Linda loaned me and the couch material caused me to sweat bullets all night long while everyone else woke up claiming to have frozen. Too much information. Suffice it to say, we had a great time at Pickleville. Moving on... (Thanks Che, for the pics!)
#67: Go to "Music and the Spoken Word." I got to go to this last weekend, when it was also the mini performance of the Mormon Tabernacle's Christmas Concert. It was FABULOUS. I loved it. Devin stayed home with Hallie, but I went with my mom, Dave, and Dave's son Jesse and his wife Adrienne. It's amazing how much goes into one of those productions. I am grateful though, because it helped put me right into the Christmas spirit.Also, had to throw in this picture since it goes sort of along with the theme of performances that we have been to. It's not on the list, but still a good thing. Devin and I got to go to the "Forgotten Carols" for the first time ever! It is something that I have wanted to see for years, but have never done for whatever reason. We didn't buy tickets this year either, but Che' and Landon had some and had a conflicting event that night, so we got to go instead. I can definitely see what the hype is about, now that I have been. Good thing I got the DVD from the Good Things Utah show; I have already watched it twice since then. Loved it. Of course you can't tell where we are, but just trust me, that's where we were!
That concludes this edition of "Let's See What Kim Has Crossed Off Her List." Stay tuned for future installments!

Well geez, this list is toast! You have accomplished a lot of your stuff. I still need to make on of those, maybe when I am finished with school (yes, in like 6 years) :) Thanks for including me in some of your events! I love you and can't wait to see you for Christmas!
I love the picture of Hallie on Santa's lap. It looks like she really liked him. Remember when you told Santa you wanted cookies for Christmas? Mom
I can't believe you made Hallie sit on Santa...the poor girl already hates most men...and Santa...please, the poor girl!
You are one crazy list girl. But really, I should take note and be more like you.
So Kim, I made gingerbread houses with my kids this past weekend. It was so much fun. Okay, I didn't make the dough, I bought it but we did put them together and it was awesome. I think it is a new tradition at the homestead. Can't wait to see you guys at Christmas. Chow.
