Hawker Family Tradition

So I have been meaning to post this forever but with the Holidays being so crazy and all, I haven't been able to. Every year, my family gets together and we spend a day in either Park City or Salt Lake. We start at about ten in the morning and have my moms homemade cinnamon rolls (YUM!) then we draw each others names. This year instead of going up to Park City to find the gifts, went to Ikea and shopped around. Most of us had not been there yet and that place is HUGE! We decided to leave the kids at my brothers house with some babysitters. That way, they could have fun playing together and we could go shopping without them which let's face it, that's always nice! Then we went and picked up the kids and went to the movie and saw Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium which was okay, the kids liked it so that's good. Then every year, we go eat at The Old Spaghetti Factory in Trolley Square. The kids were able to see Santa while we were waiting for a table and that's always fun. Anyway, this tradition is one of my favorites and we always have so much fun.


Dax and his cousins! Libbie, Allie & Landi.

BJ & Krystals little girl Lily! What a cutie!!

I had to take a pic of this tree. We were down there when Salt Lake had that big snow storm and all of the trees looked like this. So pretty!

Lily, BJ, Libbie, & Allie with Santa.

Daxton & Santa. He loves Santa!!

Hugs for Santa! He is so not afraid which is kind of nice but not as fun!

Easton (Nicole's little boy).

Landi & my Mom. Landi (BJ's daughter) thought she was too old to go see Santa so my Mom went with her.

My Mom & Dad with the grand kids.

Trolley Square was offering free carriage rides that night so we took Dax on one. He loved it!
