The rest of our Christmas Vacay

So here's the reason we were in Utah for so long: To be with Family! My kids don't have the luxury of grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles, and cousins nearby so when we get the chance to be together - we have a blast! Here's a rundown of our 2 weeks:

Christmas Morning


Cousins
Avery and Magnus (Steve & Deb's boy) are just 5 days apart. He looks so wise here.


This is Tosh (Scott and Tiffany's boy). He's so awesome. You say smile- he stops what he's doing and flashes a big one at you.


We were also able to see my cousin, Lindsey, and her 3 kids. Here's a couch picture of all the cousins and 2nd cousins. Once one of them screamed- they all screamed!


Night Tubing at Soldier Hollow
Everyone loved it- except Spencer. Go figure. He had crocodile tears the whole time even when we physically forced him up the rope and down the slide while saying, "You stop your crying right now and have fun- I mean it."




Aunts and Uncles, Grandmas and Grandpas
This is my brother's wife, Tiffany. She has the most gorgeous blue eyes.


This is my brother, Scott. Apparently in Hawaii you don't have to get haircuts :)




This is my brother, Steve, and his wife Deborah. She is a really talented photographer.


This is mt sister, Katie. Say hi to her next time you're at the Lehi Costco!


This is my mom-always holding a kid


This is my dad- the leader of the pack.


Haircuts


Guitar Hero



Temple Square Lights


Sledding
Our version of baby sledding!



We had so much fun with the Rice's and the Johansson's. We're so lucky we can visit everyone!
