Snow in Utah

 It had been awhile since we've been to Utah. Carter was so excited to see snow. We didn't pack ,uch for Utah which was nice. 

 We brought some movies and the kids were really good.

 We got to Jessica's house and the kids were anxious to get out into the snow.

 They were laughing, walking everywhere in it and trying to eat it. 

Christmas in Utah

 We got to Utah on Saturday and we got together with my brothers and sisters. We all met at my mom and dad's hotel in Salt Lake. It was right next to the Salt Lake City temple. We didn't have a big room but it went great and was so fun to get the cousins together. 

 These three love to play together. 

 Oliver and Jaxon are 7 months apart. They are the babies in the family right now.

 All the cousins together

 My mom got everything to make candy trains. The kids loved it! It was a lot of fun for them to make their own candy train.

 We got to sing Happy Birthday to Zealynn and my mom made cupcakes.

 We had an exchange. Jamie read a story. When she said right they moved the present to the right and when she said left, they loved it to the left.

Jaxon is teething and drooling so much! We had a great time. Love family and being together. It was snowing when we left.

Polar Express - Christmas Party

The kids got to wear their Christmas pajamas for the ward Christmas Party. We also brought two boxes and made them look like trains. THey got to sit in it while Sister Sanchex read the story "The Polar Express" and they got hot chocolate.

 The kids in line getting their tickets to the polar express. The conductor was Bishop Olalere.

 Jaxon looked so cute in his pajamas.

 The flash was so bright for him!

 Enjoying his thumb

A special guest came at the end. Santa Clause!

Train to Downtown LA to see James at work

 We had such a great day! We went to downtown LA to see James at work and go to lunch. We have been so blessed with his new job. It came at such a wonderful time with our new baby. It was a warm day and the kids were great!

 When we first got on the train we got on the "quiet car" Oops! We had to switch trains and that was a bit much but we figured it out.

 We got the kids a muffin and they were excited to eat it!

 I love this picture of Grandma and Jaxon

 Jaxon was such a good boy, he just slept the whole time.

 We met James at the library and then walked over to eat some yummy pizza. 

 The way back Jaxon and Carter fell asleep the whole way back.
