Christmas in Utah: WARNING PICTURE OVERLOAD

We had so much fun in Utah this year for Christmas! It is always so great to go home and see all of our friends and family. We did the traditional Christmas Eve party with my mom's side of the family, had a great Christmas dinner over at the Andrewsen's, talked to Kylie on her mission, witnessed our new little niece's blessing, ate at two of our favorite places only found in Utah (Rafael's and Asian Star), and just had tons of fun seeing family. (Mandy your just part of family). It was nice and cold and we had an awesome snow storm to drive home in! Couldn't have asked for better holidays! Sorry for the picture over load! I just wanted everyone to feel like they were there along with us!

You guys are such an adorable couple. I love to see all of the fun you have. Some time (maybe this summer) we want to visit Arizona cuz my brother lives there. And when we do we'll definitely want to see you two. And any time you pass through Vegas ... !
