Fun weekend with family

We took advantage of the three day weekend and headed south to hang out with family. On Saturday we went down to SLC to hang out with Jim and Cindy. We had plans to go out on the town but decided to stay in and play spades all night. It was boys vs. girls, very serious business. Karli and Cindy took a beating but they were very gracious losers;) We always have the funnest time playing cards with them. On Sunday we visited the Gilgal Sculpture Garden in SLC and then headed to my parents and hung out all day and watched football. Matt and Kenzie came over with their new baby Morgan (which I failed to do a post on, sorry kiddo). Adam and Mel's family came over too and we all had dinner together. Extra special thanks to my mom for dinner and inviting everyone over, it really made my day. Today we had Grace over for most of the day and we played and played and then played some more. As soon as I stop playing Grace simply says "Hey, play... play... play". I wish every weekend could be like this.

Christmas 2011

We spent Christmas Eve at Nae & Aki's. We ate a delicious dinner and played a heated game of White Elephant Exchange. Little Robby enjoyed assisting us with opening the gifts.

Christmas morning started off with a yummy breakfast of eggs, toast, and cuties. Little Robby enjoyed opening his presents. We read The Gift of the Magi and played with Little Robby's new toys in the morning. We went to my sister Emily's house for a delicious Christmas lunch/dinner. We had a great night and it was so nice to have Jenny, Randy, and Suppy with us!

Emily's birthday is on the 27th. We celebrated at my mom's house. We had tasty sweet pork and cheese cake. Don't worry Jenny and Randy-no one saw you drop the cheesecake...The grandparents took Grace and Little Robby so the big kids could go bowling. It was great to spend so much time with my sisters and brother-in-laws.
