So here is how we spent our Christmas break:

We have some amazing friends we made in Rexburg and we are going to miss them all. Alisha and Adam we are going to miss you guys! We had so much fun with you guys and we can't wait to see your baby when "it" comes.





Then we made the treck to our new place here in Irvine, CA. It's all unpacked and put away now, but is was a mess when we left for San Francisco. I'll post another one when we have everything up.



We got up to the Bay area and had so much fun with my family.
My little nephew turned Three! He is so big now and so in love with trains. "uncle Greg, can blah blah blah trains!" as he brings you the iphone to look up trains on you tube. Love him.




But don't get to close if you're not the one helping him look up the trains. I like to think he is sweetly touching my chin and not pushing me away.


Just the fam hanging out.


It's not a real family get to together if there is no wrestling. Especially with uncle Ben!





This is my sweet cousin Taylor; she really is a doll.


These houses were all decked out, I loved it, the whole block went all out!




Yes we did a little rocking out to rock band.


After Christmas we went on a beautiful hike of San Bruno mountain. Great veiw.





I love having a sister-by-love from the Bay area. We got to have breakfast with Tom and Ashley before the new year, it was good to see them.


Anyway for new years Greg and I decided to get sick, so it was a blast! We got to see Allyson, Ben's fiance, and had a great time with her. We also celebrated our two year anniversary, man we are old. We had a fun break and I am so grateful for wonderful friends, family and a loving husband. We had a great 2008, we'll see what unfolds in 2009!

We wish you were closer, but we understand that there are times you just have to move on from the Burg. We have not grasped that concept yet :) We are glad you guys are doing well, sorry you got sick and hope you are feeling better! We love you! p.s, we got to hear lil baby wickern's heartbeat today. So fun!!
