~December was a month of crafting for me & I finished these mirrors.



~Christmas eve was at my sisters in Maricopa. We had a interesting variety of yummy things to eat & we played the ever popular dice game with the family. We read Christs' birth story & sang Christmas carols. We took David home with us that night and didn't get to bed until after 2 am wrapping presents. I hate wrapping presents. HA. The next morning the kids had a blast opening presents from Santa.

{A new hoodie for Kim}


{Kyle Mp3 player}


{Scrap stuff for Lydia}

~After gift opening we drove up to St David to spend the day with Roberts family & we brought David along as well. We had so much fun talking, petting the horses, letting the kids run like crazy's and I got to take pictures of little Carsyn! What a cutie!!!





~New Years eve was busy as we made a visit to the Bridges in our ward. They were having a party and unfortunatly we had to leave early because Rob had to D.J. for the Queencreek Stake. They stinkin crack me up!!! I also got to try out a recipe for sausage won-tons from Rachel that were ahhhmazing! The stake dance made me laugh because I remember going to one on New Years 15 years ago. It was crazy because they were doing the Macarena...but not how I learned how to do it!!! Darn I felt old!

~The next day we called a bunch of folks from the ward to meet for a picnic and football at Anthem. It was sooo fun to let the kids play, chat with the girls and watch the guys toss the ball around. Defiantly something we need to do more. :)



~Another exciting thing is I was called to the Relief Society Presidency as second counselor! I adore Vera and I'm excited to "grow" in this calling.

~On the 11th of January Erica & I went to Scentsy's Spirit tour. It was a awesome day of training & I'm so glad that I went. Thanks Erica for my SWEET hoodie!!!
