Holiday Highlights

First of all, thanks for the congratulations. We all need those posts that get a lot of comments every now and then as a reminder that people do care about our lives. Sad that we have to be reminded, but it's true.

Anyway, I still want to post something from Christmas, but we did so much that I won't go into a lot of detail. Here's some photo highlights.


THE BIRTHDAY PARTY
Brayden LOVED watching his birthday video multiple times. This was his first full viewing and he got to sit on his new rocking horse holding his new ball.

The AMAZING cake Angela Durtschi made for the party!

Enjoying his duck head from the cake :)

And the kid's favorite. . . PRESENTS!
THE FLIGHT TO UTAH
He FINALLY fell asleep for about half of the second flight 
But then he got up 30 minutes before we landed :)
 UTAH BIRTHDAY PARTY
Brayden started some MAJOR teething and decided he could cry if he wanted to at his party.  But the other kids liked the toys :)

The good news is that he came home with 4 more teeth! 2 of them are still working their way all the way out, but you can feel them.

Having a little fun despite the teething
 SHARING FRUIT

TEMPLE SQUARE
We went with my Mom and brother, but I didn't see a group picture. . . too bad.
 PIZZA CELEBRATION
Steve finished Community College! Now he's moving on to the University of Utah. Way to go!
 4th ANNUAL SPAGHETTI FACTORY DINNER WITH THE SHARPS
The boys

We started going to Spaghetti Factory to celebrate Alisa's and Preston's birthdays when we first met before any of us were married (we all met in the same ward) and we decided we had to continue the tradition even if it's a little early.
 ANGIE'S FRIENDS
All the cute kiddos!! I loved seeing everyone! Sorry if I don't have a picture of you. . . I was pretty awful about taking pictures everywhere, but I seriously loved seeing each of you!
 ZOO LIGHTS & SANTA
Brayden's first time seeing Santa and he loved him. He had to keep feeling the long white beard.

 CHRISTMAS EVE

Thanks for posting the pictures. Here it is almost a month later and I still have an empty feeling about not being there to see all of you. These pictures are great! I love the Brayden ones, the family ones, and it was also fun to see you and so many of your friends who used to come visit the house when you were in high school sitting there together with your kids. Looks like a great holiday!!
