Addie was in the nutcracker again this year. She was a medium mouse. Hopefully when she is in it again two years from now, she will get to be something different.
After the Nutcracker, Addie and I rushed to the Heelis Party to see Santa. She made it in the nick of time.
We made our annual sugar cookies. It is nice to know I can still decorate cookies better than 3 people in this world.
We had our family pictures taken. The DeGraffenried Family Photo. Pretty cool, I think.
Landan and I have our first updated picture together since 2002
So I had a crazy experience with the Santaquin Church fire. I drove passed the morning we heard about the fire. I happened to see that my dad was there. So I decided to see if I could go in. I walked in, no one said a word. So I walked down the hall and up the stairs to where my dad and Bones were talking to the investigator, church architect and firemen. The church architect handed me a flashlight and told me to look around. I was horrified with what I saw. I got out my camera and started taking pictures. When I got home I wanted to show my local facebook friends that there was a lot of damage done to the church. I had no idea my pics would spread so far and so fast. I was contacted by the Santaquin paper who asked if they could use them on their website. After checking to make sure that was ok I gave my permission. What I am extremely shocked about, however, was to see my pics on FOX 13 news. I never gave permission to anyone. They were just there with my name above the photos. I was kind of freaked out that my pictures had traveled that far. So I found out the reason my pictures were so high in demand is because the media was not allowed in where I had been taking pictures. Who knew my pictures would actually be the only ones out there? I sure didn't.
It was horrifying to see.
Below is the link to the actual news broadcast that my photos were on.
