Good Bye 2013, Hello 2014

Now that it is February, I figured it would be a good time to post about Christmas and New Years! A little behind, as always.

We had such a great Christmas. Being in a small apartment, I didn't have the desire to decorate like normal, we borrowed a cute little tree from our neighbor and some decorations from my sister in law Whit. Thank goodness for these two wonderful people, I fear our little apartment would have been void of any Christmas cheer!
We didn't make it down to Temple Square this year, which I was pretty bummed about, however, we did go to the Ogden lights and it was well worth it. The kids loved walking from booth to booth checking out the different scenes. It was such a fun family night!

Christmas eve was spent with the Smith's. We had dinner and presents at the church, which is always perfect with so many kids! They have room to run and play. It is nice to not have to worry every second and just enjoy each other. I love my family so much and am grateful for our relationships with each other.

Christmas morning we opened presents with the kiddos and then headed down to Grandma J's for breakfast. Always yummy and fun to be with the J's. The boys got Monster Jam Tickets from grandma and grandpa! They are so excited to go..something they have always wanted to do!

What a great day. I love the holidays.
 New years was pretty low key. Noah went with Jaxyn to a party with his Hale family. Ben and I took the two littles for some Chinese food and then Daniel and Whit came over and we played games until Midnight! It was a good night. I am always glad to start a new year, fresh with hope!

I am always sad for the holidays to be over. I hope you all had a wonderful time filled with Family and fun.
