So we are now back into the swing of things and looking forward to a great year full of possibilities. We were so blessed to be able the spend Christmas with our families in Utah . We stayed busy and tried to hit any party that would let us in! We had some camera issues so we borrowed Katie's parents and Mike's sister, DeAnn took a lot of Sherman photos. I don't have the Sherman pics yet so this post is Richins sided. We truly loved the times we shared and precious memories we made. Thanks everyone for taking us in, feeding us WAY too much yummy food and for the support and love we always feel from you. 
Rachel, Nate and Karter were quite the team!
Aubree, Hannah and Aliza had a blast creating candy heaven !
Rachel and her new toys!
Stylin' boots!
What a cute girl!
Hannah likes vintage toys. A couple years ago she asked for a jack in the box. This year she asked for puppets/puppet theater and an Etchasketch.
Aliza received a lot of fun girly things. When she saw what Santa had brought she shouted out, "I didn't get anything I wanted!! I actually got more than I wanted" Translation: Aliza's list was a little high maintenance and out of reach for Santa. She did get a lot of things she wanted she just didn't know she wanted them yet!
Nate ENJOYED Christmas with his usual enthusiasm. He got A LOT of Thomas the Tank Engine trains and tracks. HEAVEN!

We spent a few days at the Pattersons in Wyoming. The kids had the funnest time playing together, staying up really late, playing pranks, decorating cookies and getting snowed in! Hopefully, we will find some pictures from those few days. Thanks DeAnn and Todd!

Does this little dog look real? Well, its not but it just lays there and breathes.
Our beloved Candace. She is so good to play with the girls. They love her to pieces. The girls also enjoyed watching her play volleyball. She is a star! She is also 6 '1"!
Cute boys!
Our family gift from Santa.
This is pretty much what Mike and Nathan did for two weeks!

It snowed all night and day. The views of the mountains were more than breathtaking.
Aliza's 6th birthday!
Birthday breakfast in bed! Aliza requested Lucky Charms and toast with butter.
Served by Sir Grandpa Ron. It was great!
I caught Liza doing was she loves. Cleaning!
A beautiful dinner!
Same dinner. Another table. I love how Annie and Josh get to sit at the kid table and Rachel and Hannah are settled in at the "adult" table. Classic!

I love all the pictures! Looks like everyone had a great Christmas. It's fun to see that the girls' personalities haven't changed too much. I could totally see why they loved each of their presents.
I'm so glad that you like your notebook. It was a fun little craft we did for Enrichment and I made several and wanted to share. :) I sure miss you all!!!
We miss you all so much! We didn't get a very good chance to say goodbye and it made me so so sad :( We love you and we really want to plan a trip to come and visit soon!
Looks like a lot of fun. We just found out we'll be spending August in Utah, so hope we can get together and have some fun!
P.S. I'm bummed we didn't get a Sherman Christmas card. Maybe we'll make the list next year.
Hey guys! We LOVED spending time with you guys over Christmas. My kids talk constantly about yours and how much fun they had. Sorry so slow on the pictures :) Guess I ought to download them, copy them and get them off. I'll do that tomorrow. Thanks for the great times.
I loved all the pics and it was so fun to see you guys while you were here! Happy 12 years also! It goes by fast huh??
Happy Anniversary! Wow you guys look like you had a lot of fun. Duane's parents have that exact same little dog! Funny!
