Santa Came
Jeff and I think too much alike. We both got each other a body pillow.
The girls got babies and barbies.
Ashleigh got an ouch on her knee.
Kenyon loved the nerf guns especially.
Logan got a huge herf gun. But I think his favorite was the silly string he got from his good friend, Brody.
Jeff was very happy this year. Of course he did most of the shopping for his own presents.
We had the Wolfington side of the family over for dinner and Christmas eve fun. Dylan was able to make it for a little while but we didn’t have our cameras out. We missed the Noah and the Bryants. Hopefully next year we can all get together. Aunt Jill organized a gingerbread making activity which everyone, including Grandma Tracy got into.

The whole gang.
We had a surprise visit from our favorite family friends from Tucson – the Billings. We ate pizza and then went to the Temple to see the lights. 
Jeff surprised me with an over night get away to the Buttes for our Anniversary. A full 24 hours without kids. It was very relaxing. We lounged around, went to dinner, went to the mall to do a little shopping, slept in, and went to a movie!
Yesterday Michelle, Gretchen and I ran 7.6 miles. They had carolers every km. It was a lot of fun and boy were we hungry afterwards.

Ashleigh’s sad because she didn’t get to put up the star.
Merry Christmas
We were able to travel to Gila Valley to spend Thanksgiving with Grandma and Grandpa Lindsay. We had a weekend filled with adventure and fun.
First Grandma and Grandpa have the best sandbox ever!
They also have swings. This is were Jeff spent most of his time.
We were able to go throw rocks in the canal. Kenyon made me super nervous, the boy has no fear.
Did I mention the swings?
Uncle Steven brought entertainment for the older boys. Logan and Noah were gone most of the day riding around.
We also did a lot of swinging in Grandpa Lindsay’s tire swings.
Aunt Jill brought gunny sacks for races.
Grandpa Lindsay provided us with a hay ride. We were able to sing Christmas songs as we rode along.
Grandma read us bed time stories.
Sleeping arrangements were fun with 13 adults and 11 or so kids under one roof
One word - Swings
Makenzie showing Jace how to clean up.
On Friday we went to Merry Mainstreet.
We also stopped by Grandpa Udall’s zip line on the way out of town.
What a fun weekend!
My partners in crime and I have decided to run a few races this season. So we started out easy with a 5k at Gilbert days.
The kids and I ran the 1 mile fun run last year. They wanted to run again this year so we enlisted dad’s help. Here they are crossing the finish line.
