Another wonderful holiday has come and gone...

It's just so hard to believe that Christmas has come and gone! We sure had a nice holiday season. We weren't all together for Christmas but we managed to be able to celebrate with each of the kids and grand-kids. The week-end before Christmas we flew up to Alaska and met Kristen and Jeremy and the kids in Anchorage.
Even though it was just a short visit - it was sure fun seeing them all. We got a couple of rooms in Anchorage and had fun playing with the kids and swimming at the hotel.
These kids are so awesome!

It was snowy and cold outside but toasty warm in the pool...
I can't even believe how beautiful Alaska is! It was so cold and the snow was so beautiful!


Christmas dinner with the Farrars......

The sun came up at around 10am and was starting to set at 3pm. So crazy! The snow on all of the trees didn't even look real. So pretty!

Christmas Eve....took the girls to dinner at Rodizio Brazilian Grill. I love this photo of them.

Headed to Temple Square to see the beautiful Christmas lights....

Waiting for the lights to come on. It was sooooo cold! We laughed at Lee's hoodie hat all night!
I love Temple Square at Christmastime. It was so wonderful having the girls there with us!
