Random December

Tyler received, yet another, auto certification. He's such a smart kid. 
Josh and I snuck away to the SG to run some errands, go to the temple and to go to a funeral for our dear friends mom. 

Had to take a selfie to send to our missionary. 
Zach finally got a phone. Yay. 
Our yearly ornament. Whitney is so missed. 
How cute is this sparkling cider cozy from the Shaws!
My obsession with beaded earrings knows no bounds...
This boy LOVES riding around on his GROM. 
He and Ben got bored and did a color change...

He and Cosmo match now...
I threw together an impromptu birthday party for my girl, Charlene. 

Cosmo continues to be a cuddler.
Trying to keep this poinsettia alive.  I still have one from last Christmas!
Just needed a drink.

Christmas haps 2024

It has been a wonderful Christmas season. We didn't do any big travelling and it has been nice to have my little family close around me. We miss Whitney very much, so that has been hard, but we've enjoyed talking to her more than usual due to Tyler's birthday and Christmas, etc. 
Puzzle that me and Zach finished in just under 15 minutes. Yes, we time ourselves. 
Didn't have time to get a real tree this year, so we pulled our fake one out of retirement. 

Tyler was in charge of the tree topper, obviously. 

Lots of cars and motorcycles on the tree this year...

The Stake put on a community Christmas event for the City. This is the only picture I got though! Josh and I helped Theo and his boys created this cool arch for the snowflakes to be showcased on. It was a fun activity to invite the Christmas spirit. 
Annual "drinking game". I'm running out of unique drinks to buy!


Christmas Eve Jammies


Santa came










Another puzzle done in just under 15 mins...
Straight chillin...
Lake Powell on Christmas day!!













We went and did baptism the day after Christmas. I'd love to make this a tradition. 

Talking to Whitney on Christmas day as the boys played bball. 


We're so thankful for the blessings we've received this year. We have so much to be grateful for. We pray we are making the most of the gifts we receive from the Lord.
