Christmas Eve we got on a plane and headed to AZ. We spent Christmas day with the Backus'. We had a great time and I love to see some of the traditions Matt had while growing up. His whole family was there

Then the next day we got back on a plane and headed towards Idaho. My sisters Nicole and Nellie and my brother Ben live there. Nicole was about to have a baby any day so we decided since she couldn't come to AZ for the Holidays we would go there and have a family reunion
We stayed in a cabin in Driggs and had lots of fun. It was very, very cold and I am more grateful that I live in a State that only at most snows once a year .
Blake loved his Uncle Ben and followed him wherever he went.
Nicole day dreaming about not being pregnant
My cute and fun SINGLE sister Nellie. (Let me know if you want to set her up with a great guy.)
My handsome, fun , SINGLE brother Bradley (also let me know if you have any girls you want to set him up with)
While their dad was gone Blake and Tyler become models for the bows that their aunts were making.
Blake loved the snow.
I learned how to snowboard. The one thing I thought I would never do because of my distaste for cold and snow. As well as a horrible memory of watching a lady in my ward growing up break her back on a youth snow trip. It still gives me the shivers when I think about it. However, my sisters talked me into it and I am so glad I went.
Here I am trying to stand up. It took me forever! At this point I was not happy I came. But thanks to a patient and loving husband and a suggestion from Nellie I got up.
Look at me I am practically a pro! (Just kidding I think I fell about every two minutes if not sooner).
Enjoying the hot tub after being super sore from snow boarding. My Body loved it but my face was frozen!

That trip went by way too fast! I wish you guys were still here, especially now that Livvy is here! She really wants to meet her favorite Aunt!!!
Those are some cute pics! We were sure glad to see you and your family. I think I have a few pieces of one of your toys. I'll have to send them your way, they are little block things with numbers on them...
What a fun trip! Zac and I have decided to hold off on learning the winter sports - maybe next winter, if we're still here. :)
I like the bow that Tyler was wearing...I need to practice making bows.
good times! The hot tub is underground?! that is awesome! it looks cool in the snow.

That seems like such a fun trip! Your boys are looking so cute, and your little Tyler is growing up really fast!
