Pre-Christmas

 We spent a few weeks in UT over Christmas, but before we left, we fit in some festivities here, too. First, an annual trip to our favorite outdoor ice skating rink.

Then, a few decorations . . . (I tried to do very little since we were leaving for the holidays, but Savannah just wouldn't have it - so we put up some small trees).

 And of course, Ashkii and Trev took their annual trip to the Army Navy football game in PA.  I am pretty sure Trevor lives for this tradition:) The girls and I had fun, too, as we stayed home and painted nails and watched The Muppets Christmas Carol.

 Trevor had his first piano recital. He played a "Beauty and the Beast" duet with his teacher, and the Chipmunks Christmas Song.  Here he is with his teacher - he loves her, which is good, because it keeps him taking lessons even when he really wants to give up!

And this picture is only included because Ashkii insisted I share it under the title "This is my life!"

Oh, and we also fit in a visit to the DC Temple Lights with Ashkii's cousin's family - we were lucky to have them living in DC for a short time!
