The Holidays

We spent Thanksgiving at home this year but we wanted to have a house full of people so we invited the missionaries and a couple of families to join us.
 

 
Ben made a beautiful turkey.  One of the guests told him it was the best turkey he ever tasted.

 
Here is the kids table.

 
Fun boys!

 
Fun Missionaries!
 

 
The more the merrier!
 


 
Zoe topped this pie.
 

 
We started potty training Bekett just before Thanksgiving.  He is so cute in his little undies.



 
Zoe went to her first school dance without a date.
 

 
We went to Utah for Christmas.
 

 
We got to see nana and grandpa and took the train to see temple square.
 



 
Look at those lights!
 


 





 
 
It was duper cold so we warmed up with hot chocolate.
 



 
We also spent a day with our cousins at the Children's Museum
 
















 
 



 
Christmas Eve we did our own Nativity.


We love getting Christmas Cards from our friends around the world!

 
Hey Santa!
 






 
Then we opened presents!
 








 
We are the pajama sisters!
 

 
We visited some family on the way home.
 

 
 
My amazing uncle Randy died unexpectedly just before Christmas.  We were not able to make it to the Funeral but we were able to visit his sweet family.  Theay are a true testiment to what a wonderful man he was.
 

 
We drove all night to get home and arrived home around 4 am.  The boys of course wanted to open our gifts right then.  We opened gifts until 6 am and then Ben, Zoe, Bekett and I went to bed.  Tate and Grey stayed up.
 

 
Until around 4 pm when Greysen fell asleep while walking up the stairs!
 

 
Handsome crew!

 
New church clothes
 
Our friends the Sampson's came to visit for new years.

 
We might have gotten a little crazy.
 






 
 




















Happy Holidays full of friends and family.
 
Can't ask for more than that.
