 Christmas morning with my fam.

 Skyping Elder Rockwood in Texas!

 The babies! Both Cooper and Amelia were not happy, probably because this is after Stella stared hitting them in the face. Sorry guys!! We have since continued teaching "being soft".

 And a few pictures from our Christmas Eve dinner at aunt Jeri and uncle Alans.  Such a great night!

Trying to Catch Up

 Sooo.....It's been awhile.  I really am going to try to catch up on the happenings of our family mostly for my purposes.  I don't scrapbook, I rarely journal, so this is it.  And only if my mom and sisters read this, that okay too.

We are in a really exciting time in our lives; house, baby, new state, etc. and I really want to be able to have it on record. 

I guess I will start where I left off four months ago (yikes). 

Christmas In Enumclaw, Washington

It's always so nice to be back in your home town! And besides everyone getting the flu including Stella, we had a great time. All my siblings and their children where there (minus my brother on his mission in TX). It was so fun to be together and I finally got to meet my new nephew Cooper and niece Amelia. Such cuties!

Christmas Sunday.  Always such a great day of church, music and food. 

Spending the night in downtown Seattle

Love my Hayden and Lucy

Thanksgiving in Tennessee- Part 1

A while back we came up with the idea to rent a big house with Dustin's family for a grand family Thanksgiving. After searching online we decided on the central location of Gatlinburg, TN. None of us had even been to Gatlinburg, but when we found a good deal for a huge cabin in the mountains and we decided to go for it. It was awesome, and we had such a great time. We all had our own rooms with king beds, a big game room with a pool table, air hockey and foosball, hot tub and amazing views of the mountains.  The weather was so nice and we were able to do a lot outside.   

There were 17 of us in total and it was constant fun chaos the the whole time!
