Catch Up

Christmas Break was so great! I spent a couple days in Vegas, then went to Phx to spend Christmas with John and his family, and then we went back to Vegas to spend New Years there. The weather was practically perfect and I enjoyed getting to know some of John's little nieces and nephews a little better...


First we have Kate, Paige, Ellie, Seth, and Chase.

I stole this one from Courtney's blog. (sorry...but thanks.)




and also Laney and Allie. (i think Laney liked the gift we got her:)

(Also stole this pic from Mandy--thanks again)




While in Vegas we spent time with Cade, Chloe, and Claire...

(again, pic stolen from Kamy. gracias.)





Christmas was great! I enjoy the idea of a "White Christmas," however, you just can't beat playing outside when it's sunny and beautiful on Christmas day. Gotta love Phx and Vegas!!

Vegas was also fun. We helped my Dad at his (new) annual New Years party for the youth in our stake. They had a ton of stuff -- Wii games, ping pong, velcro wall, great food, bouncing/obstacle course blow up thingy, and a couple movies showing. Hopefully next year there will be a lot more people.


Sorry for the pics of just the kids (these are all John's nieces and nephews for those friends thar are probably slightly confused why I'm posting pics of random kids) Enjoy them. :)

The kids are getting great use out of the microphones. The girls have been doing a lot of fashion shows with them but have now moved on to playing American Idol with Seth. Luckily we already had one microphone so now we have enough for each of the four big kids to have one (seth likes to be simon).
