Christmas

Christmas came way too fast and was gone just as quickly!

We had a great time spending time with all our family! We got spoiled yet again this year!

Another highlight is that the day after Christmas I was able to go to lunch with my old roommates and friends! These girls have been my friends since elementary school and I just can't get enough of them!

We also had a little family photo shoot:



As we reflect on this past year we realize just how blessed we are. Hope you all have a Fabulous New Year!!!

CRUISE

For Christmas this year Jake and I decided to treat ourselves to a week long vacation! On December 13th Jake and I departed out of a blizzardy SLC with our friends Nate and Karlee to head to sunny San Diego. Jake had just finished with finals and we were ready to take a break from our responsibilities here! We had a blast! Here are a few pictures of the highlights of our trip!

We loved the sandy beaches and piers of San Diego!

It's been a while since we updated this thing, but yes we are still alive and well.

We are going to have to back track a few months!

We got to go to the REAL SL first playoff game.....GO REAL, MLS cup champs!

Gotta love the weirdos in the back trying to draw attention to themselves!

Koda and I hiked up Adam's Canyon on one of the last nice days of this fall!

We are lucky to live so close to such pretty places!

Jake has been busy coaching wrestling. He's also been busy with school and work. He's excited for finals to be over with so he can have a break for a few weeks!

Jake wrestling for Weber State vs. Utah State.

We had a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving with time to visit with all of our family! We are so grateful for all that we have and all that we are blessed with each and every day!

The good news is that Jake only has 1 week left of this semester and then we are headed off on our CRUISE!!!!
