Holiday Happenings

Lexie and Margo came for a visit along with Lexie's baby, Isabelle.

So wonderful to get to have lunch and spend time with such dear friends!

I miss having them next door!

Nugents introduced us to a new card game, "Phase 10." It was an instant favorite for Angela. 

Not so much for Dan! He prefers Hearts because he always wins. 

Wednesday night the Pauls arrived!

Thursday morning our weight trainer came and the guys did a circuit training workout together 

and the girls worked out the next hour.

 After our Karaoke party that night our sisters had a "Favorites" gift exchange.

Cutest red shoes from Sheree, Real Simple magazines from me, favorite sparkling drink from Katie, body wash & veggie chopper from Rachel, bracelets engraved with our children's names from Bekah and Heel Genius lotion & Roll-on perfume from Michelle.

We went shopping and to lunch on the 29th with all the sisters and Elise. (Except Rachel, Wahhh!)

Cute new red shoes!

That night we taught Michelle and Brent Phase 10 while Bekah wrangled her kids, their cousins and Brook and Jacob for a sleepover. Finally a chance for the bunk room to be used to its full purpose!

Early on the 30th we headed to Park City to watch the Nordic Ski Jump Olympic trials.

Showing off my new red gloves knitted by Erin!

We got home just in time to say goodbye to Bekah, Jax, Lucy, Livy and Jane. 

So fun to spend Christmas with that cute, fun family!

Installing the new speakers!

And then I spent some time preparing my Relief Society lesson for the next morning.
