Caution: Long Post Ahead

Holidays are CRAZY!!! 3 weddings and a reunion! Who knew! I just can’t believe how fast it went. What we did... Travel!! To start our trip- Utah for Denise's (Eric's Sis) wedding, loved it. Idaho for a reunion. And then Oregon till New Years, with a few weddings in between! All with a bouncing baby boy! Woooo! But amongst this hectic schedule I found refuge in the time I spent with FAMILY!! We are so happy that we were able to see everyone in our families this year! Even if 30 of Eric’s 50 Family members got sick (Give or take a few). We are so blessed to have wonderful and amazing families!

So much has happened!

~My younger Brother returned from his mission in Hawaii- Dec. 3rd! It was such a blessing to be there when he got off the plane! He is still getting use to being home, but has transitioned very well. He still thinks he can beat me up… He wishes! ;) I told him before he left on his mission that he was going to get fat because ppl in Hawaii LOVE food and Luaus. He said I was wrong… so we decided to have a lil wager amongst the siblings:$20 owed from those who lose. Now I have to come up with $20. He looks great!

~Ryker has been crawling for a few weeks now. With his new found freedom he seems to think he is Invincible! Always pulling himself up onto things trying to Go through things… Keeps me busy! I like it!





~Christmas Day: My Twin Sister got ENGAGED!! We were all able to witness the proposal! No one really knows if Jennae and I were more thrilled or Kellie that Brian was there. We lovingly pulverized the happy couple on the door step! We LOVE Brian and welcome him to our ever growing Family. Congrats Kell & B



~We got to be in Vale for Eric’s brother, Matt’s, Court of Honor where he received his Eagle award! It was great to see all of the brothers/ in-laws dressed up in scout uniforms to support Matt and his accomplishments! Proud of ya Matild!

Even though we just started the New Year, it already seems to be getting crazy! But I guess that’s what comes when you’re ME!

I found this quote and think I might make it my Motto for this month Whoever encounters my presence remember this: “Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”

Happy New Year!
