End of the Year

We spent the last few days of 2013 in St George. It was about 20 degrees warmer there than at home so the kids really enjoyed being outside! We went to a movie, went swimming, did some hiking, went to play at the parks and went to the Temple's Visitor Center. It was a great way to finish out the year and ring in 2014!!
 

 
 
 




 
 
 
 
 

 
 

Christmas 2013

Christmas morning sure was fun! The kids were so excited that Santa came and had a great time opening their presents. Here are pictures of them opening presents and playing with presents and also pictures of what they all got for Christmas. Heidi and the boys came over later that day and had dinner and slept over. The kids had a fun time playing with them and all the boys went sledding together the next day. It was fun to have cousins around and the kids have enjoyed all their new toys.

 

 
 

 

 

 

 
 
 
 

Christmas Eve

Jake worked on Christmas Eve but when he got home we went out with the kids. We ended up meeting up with some friends at the last minute for dinner at the Brick Oven. We had them sing Happy Birthday to Shalise so she was pretty excited. :) Then we took the kids to the Riverwoods to look at the lights. After that Shalise opened her Birthday Card from Nana and Gramps and was very excited about the money! Then the kids opened their Christmas pajamas and got ready for bed. They were very excited and all slept in Carson's room waiting for morning... :)
 


 
 
 


 


Ward Christmas Party

The Ward Christmas Party was a few days before Christmas. It was really fun. The kids got to see Santa and do some Christmas crafts and have a pajama parade. They also had a photographer there to take pictures, they turned out so cute!
