Ho, Ho, Ho Merry Christmas! :)

 This year for Christmas, it was just me, Amanda, my parents and grandma. I was pretty bummed at first but it turned out to be just as good! On Christmas eve morning we went out to breakfast for "breakfast with Daddy" that we've been doing since we were kids and then later that evening, we had a nice dinner than  played our traditional game of Left, Right, Center which i won, so i received my dad's large cup of coins which was worth about $60! And then, of course we watched the nativity video which we love watching every year to remind of what Christmas really is about.

Christmas Eve night, with our new pajamas!

 On Christmas morning my mom insisted we get up at 7 rather than 6 and we made sure to set our alarm to get up no later! As we were waiting at the top of the stairs to come down, Ash and David came over and hung out while we opened our gifts because they already had Christmas with Davids fam.

I am pretty sure grandma had more presents then all of us combined but i was super excited about my gifts and I LOVE them!! Our family's main gift this year is a trip to Disneyland in February!

Even though this year, we didn't have all 15 of us it was still awesome and I loved celebrating the birth of the Savior.

Gift Exchange

  This year my friends and I decided it would be WAY easier (and less expensive) If we drew names this year instead of buying every person a gift. This year i got Holly! i was excited to get her because the same day i drew her name we went shopping together which it made it tons easier, even though it was supposed to be a secret.. I may have been a bit obvious ;) Anyways all of the girls came over yesterday and we had pizza then opened our gifts! Turns out Lindsey had me and I LOVE my gift! she gave me this super cute watch from Charming Charlie's.

My new watch!!

 It was very fun and i think this will become an annual tradition!

David Archuleta/ Tab Choir concert

 My family got tickets to see the David Archuleta/ Tab choir concert and so this past weekend we headed to Salt Lake!! We stayed with Andrea and Jeremy and then the next day drove another 4 hours to Salt lake. It was a lot of driving and claustrophobia but it turned out to be totally worth it!! I have never been a huge David Archuleta fan but he was amazing!! After the concert we walked around and looked at the temple lights which were so pretty! The next day we drove to St. George and went to church Andrea and Jeremy and then drove home that day. It was great and I am so glad we got the opportunity to see the concert! :)

 The stage was decorated really cool!

 The whole fam after the concert

And of course we had to take a picture of the two cutest little kids ever!! ;)

cousins/Holly's 15th B-day

 This past weekend was been so much fun! My cousin Jessi came to visit and on Friday, her sister Heather came and we always have a blast with them! these girls are the funniest cousins ever! We love hanging out with them! We decided that we really wanted to embarrass Heather when picking her up from the airport so we made a sign and cheered as she got off the plane! Haha gooood times!:)  then we went to our house and hung out.

On Saturday, It was one of my really good friends, Holly's 15th Birthday! To celebrate she invited a small group of us to go out to dinner to Johnny Rockets and then had a photo scavenger hunt at San Tan mall. It was me, Shaelyn, and Austin v.s. Kell, Holly and Noah.  But sadly, the security guards caught on to what we were up and we were forced to stop. Afterwards we went to Holly's and played some intense extreme spoons and then just hung out for the rest of the night, it was super fun!

 The whole bunch!
