Christmas excitement

Remember how excited we used to get on Christmas? I love this video! :) I can totally see all of us freaking out about getting our original nintendo :)

Moms Favorite

Sorry Jim and Judi but I found out who Mom's favorite child is....It's Jer.

So I got this call at work today from a guy who worked at LDS hospital in Endoscopy and I said, "oh do you know an Anne Jackson that used to work there?" he said that he did and that she is working at IMC now. I told him that I was her son and he said :
"Oh are you the son that went to Australia on a mission?"
me - "oh, no that is my brother"
Him - "oh so you must be the computer whizz who fixes everyone’s computer and graduated from BYU"
me - "um, no that is my brother"
Him - "Oh, so you must be the singer"
me - (not wanting to embarrass him or me any further) "umm yeah, that’s me"

So sorry guys but Jer is the favorite, no one else was mentioned at all :) Looks like I'll be working on Dad....

The Lights

So Saturday we all went as a family (Hansen Family) downtown to go and see the lights. It was quite an experience. First we traveled downtown and parked at the 4th south building (thanks dad!) and then PACKED onto the trax train. I don't have a great picture to see how packed we really were but it I was getting crazy claustrophobic!



The lights were awesome this year and we have decided that we go to them too much when we started realizing which trees don't have lights which had them in previous years.

It was a great time with family that we won't soon forget. Thanks to Arvie for taking so many awesome pictures!



















After walking around temple square we walked up to Skool Lunch and got some yummy hot chocolate.







As you can see the Hansen family knows how to have fun....








So much so that Amy grabbed Jeff's hand on trax and touched some random guys butt with it..... The guy didn't think it was so funny. But as you can see Amy nearly passed out :)





Someone had the wise idea to all walk like we had no knees and Jeff decided that he wanted to make it an Olympic sport and see how fast he could run to the trax stop without using his knees :) Enjoy :)

Decorating Time

This is me modeling where our tree will go. I felt like one of the Sneeches in a Dr. Suess book or something :)










This is our awesome tree. We bought it last year, but it looks better in the room this year since we don't have our bed in that room now :)















Ali decided that to compete with mom that we would also need to have 3 trees :)










You got nothing on our trees mom! (jk your trees rock)








And finally here are our sweet stockings....

Hitlers Reaction to BYU's loss vs Utah...

I know it was a week ago, but I don't get to gloat very often :)

In related news: On Sunday, Max Hall at church was asked to pass the sacrament but it was immediately picked off by a University of Utah player...
