What is going on....

We had a great Christmas. We left Christmas morning to drive to California to visit my family. It had been a couple of years since we took the whole family to visit. We went with no plans, except to visit and relax. My parents were excited because they were able to get a family picture with all grandkids. Everyone hasn't been together for awhile. Kyle and I got to watch the Jazz play the Lakers, too bad they had to get beat. The seats were awesome (right where the players come out). My Dad has season tickets. The kids spent most of the time playing with cousins and getting reaquainted. Austin was a little bored but had his cell phone to text his many friends. He did get to go golfing with uncles. We went as a family to see National Treasure which was good!

We took the kids to visit one of Kyle's mission companions who lives out by San Diego..we usually try to get with them when we go down. We spent the whole day with them and the kids had a blast with their horses, chickens and riding quads. They had made us an awesome lunch and we left before dinnertime.

We were able to have Brandon and Nicole and kids come to my parents home to visit. We should of planned something to do with them but we did get to visit with them.

We were able to travel in good weather, inbetween storms and came home on New Years Day. I felt relaxed and rested but hated coming home to the Christmas mess...I guess you can't have everything.

Kyle will be getting released from being Elders Quorum President and got the call for Scoutmaster..one big calling to the next...Brock is excited. I will look forward to no Sunday meetings. We are now back into our busy lives, basketball, dance and baseball conditioning for Austin. Austin will start Drivers Ed. pretty soon--scary.
