Night sledding!! It is so awesome. I love this photo because Matt could not walk up the hill. He kept falling. He ended up crawling!
New Year's Eve party at Carrie's and Brandon's.
It was a fun blast. Matt found us a great babysitter from Craigslist!
But first we took the kids to Provo's First Night. They had everything from fire dancers, carnival games, face painting, free photo booth pictures, eating contests (Jarom's favorite), girls from beauty salons doing hair. Just tons of shows, live music and a million things to do. I felt bad that we only had a few hours there with the kids.
This is how we found Art after the dance party. Matt and I got a kick out of it.
At the dance party. I had to put this in because every time I go home (back to CA) I'm always hoping to run into old friends but NEVER do. So this was the first in three years!! hurray!
Matty and I danced the night away. I wish I had a million more pictures of this party because it was just about the most fun I had in a long time. Crazy fun dance moves from everyone packed into Heather's home.
This is what we call "cook a fire". The kids love helping grandpa and even great grandpa this time burning all their brush. They work long and hard on the land and we get to enjoy their hard work with bonfires. We roasted turkey dogs and marshmallows with the cousins.
Day after Christmas. Bell and Jarom rolling around on their new favorite gifts.
Christmas day!!
Christmas Eve with Mary, Jesus and Joseph.
We got to Placerville just in time to Christmas carol.
Christmas morning at our home. We woke the kids up at 3 am. Matt and I were worried about getting to Placerville for Christmas because it had been snowing for two days straight, so we left early.
Our humble Christmas. Each kid had three things under the tree. I was worried that they would be upset. But everything worked out perfectly. It was very Merry!
