Bowling\New Years

I love the Holidays! Not only do I get a ton of time off work, but I get to spend most of it with family and that could not make me happier! Pete and Whitney came back to Utah for the Holidays and it was so fun get to hang out with them! For our last big hurrah we all went bowling at fat cats.

Of course before we started bowling the kids had to learn how to play skeeball from the champ, Grandma Dorothy.

Always have to get a brothers picture:)

The girls


It was so fun getting to hang out with Pete, Whit, Belle, and Burton. Burton looks so much like Matt you just have to love him and every time Belle would say "Untle Matt" she won him over a little more.

It is so fun when the Klc's get together. Our group has been a little small lately with everyone moving different places. We are so excited for Pete and Whit to move back this year and we are hoping the other brothers and sister will do the same. (hint hint Steph, Cyd, and Andrew:)


This Year for New Years we went and stayed in Pinevalley (close to St Goerge) in the Dixie College cabin, and as always we had a blast!!! One of the highlights was definitely the Murder Mystery Dinner Annette and Wyatt set up for us. About a week before the party we all got our part we would be playing and dressing up as. It was so fun and SO funny!

Lexi got to dress up in our costumes when we were done.

We had a fun weekend, but it wore some of us out. Josh and Brody did not have any trouble finding somewhere to sleep.

So that was our end of the year parties. Now we have started a new year and we can't wait to see what is ion store. I think this is going to be the best year yet ;)

Christmas with the Klc's

We had such a fun December! We have so many great friends and family to celebrate Christmas with! It all started with my work party. I know I always say how great my job is, and it is true. I was sad when Kristin started only working one day a week, but she found the perfect replacement! Brooke fits right in to the amazing group I work with. I seriously have the BEST boss! Just like every year He and Shelley spoiled us with lots of treats, cook books (that are amazing!), a huge bag filled with everything from bath and body works, our favorite chapstick, Plus our bonus! Not to mention the 9 lb honey bake ham they gave us for Thanksgiving! They treat us so well!

Our next Christmas party was with the Gines family. No matter what we do we always have fun when we are together! This year we had lots of food,Ugly sweater competition, presents, and fun minute to win it games.
This years contestants. Annette, Julie, Kelli, Grandma, Sarah, Tara, Dave, Nikki, Tommy, Mom, Matt, Annette (Sarah won)

Although I thought Matt looked pretty good with his shoulder pads!
Every year with the Klc Family we go to the Lion House for dinner and walk around and look at the Temple lights. We missed Matt's sisters and their families that live in Maryland. It felt like our group was a lot smaller this year. We were suppose to meet before dinner to look at the lights but most of us were late so we went and looked at the lights after dinner. I love the Temple lights!

The whole group at Lion House

Beautiful Salt Lake Temple

It is so fun having Phil home!

Uncle Matt and Isabelle (or as Belle would say Untle Matt)


I dont even know how Matt got Belle on his shoulders. The entire time we were walking around Temple Square she was attached to Grandma Dorothy:)


I didnt take very many pictures on Christmas even though Matt got me a brand new lens! Matt and I were both sick in bed all Christmas Eve and we just getting over it on Christmas. We spent the day at my parents house. It was quiet, but we had fun. My brother got a Kinect so we spent most of the day playing that and watching movies.
Oh and we HAD to watch the Lakers\Heat game. GO HEAT!

You cant see it very well, but Cameron got a kitty for Christmas. I hate cats, but Oliver is kinda cute.

The best way to skii! Warm Inside!

Tyson and Mom
Sarah, Tyson, and Caddi (AKA Oprah) Dont you think this would make a great wedding invitation? hint hint Tyson!

Thanks everyone for the great Christmas!
