We are back!

We just got back from Utah last night. We had such a great time. The main reason we went was because my very best friend, Hayley, got married. Congratulations to Hayley and Garrett. I am so very happy for them! I can't believe these are the only pictures I got of the 2 of them.I love Garrett's face in this one, even if you can only see part of it.The other cool thing about the wedding was that all 5 of my roommates from my freshman year at Ricks were there. It was so great seeing all of them and talking about what they are up to. So much fun!!!

Our week started out with some sledding.
Parker looks like a little marshmallow and he had a hard time walking. It was kind of funny.This is the first hill we went down. It wasn't long enough, so we had to move on.This is the hill we ended on, not very steep but much longer.And there was a jump at the end. How fun is that!Parker even liked it.

Then Chris took the boys skiing. They had so much fun and they did great. This was Riley's first time and Jacob's second. Great job boys!
Chris chillin on the lift.


Then we ended our trip with a carnival in the front yard. We really want to thank my sister-in-law, Catherine, and her husband, Nic, for letting us stay at their house with them. They were so great to us. They even rented a jumping castle and a cotton candy maker for our last day there. The boys will always want to go visit Aunt Catherine and Uncle Nic. The jumping castle was almost as big as the house.Parker loved every minute in the jumping castle. The beach balls made it even more fun!Who gets their very own carnival in their front yard? How great is this!


Catherine and Nic making the cotton candy. There was cotton candy all over the place. Thanks again you guys for all the fun. We love and miss you guys all ready. The boys already asked if we can go back to your house next weekend. Too bad the drive is so long.

Christmas overview

We always open pajamas on Christmas Eve.Making cookies for Santa. Do you think he got sick from all the sprinkles?The only thing the boys wanted for Christmas was a Wii. So, that is all they got. They were really excited.Parker wasn't feeling well. He didn't want to open any presents. Then he got a pack of 4 different balls and he couldn't let go of them.The whole crazy family. It's amazing that we got one with everyone looking. I love this picture of my parents with all of their grandkids.
All the girls.All the boys.
