We had the best Christmas ever with our cousins, the Rogers. We stayed with Flint and Jan, then went to Jan's family cabin in the mountains. We went 4-wheeling, which was a blast and Thaya loved it. She loved it so much she fell asleep on the way home from riding the trails. We played games and ate a ton of food. We ate delicious Mexican food in Mesa and we went to the Mesa temple with our cousins, the Anderson's from WA!!! So much fun!!!! We hope you all had a great Christmas!

Visit with Santa..


Well, Thaya loved looking at Santa but seeing all the kids screaming when they sat on his lap made her very nervous and scared. She decided Santa was not a good idea, when they took this picture she was balling, they just took it so fast she looks just scared. Now she talks as though it was fun and she got a candy cane. Children are so wierd!!!! Maybe next year will be better. Derrick I think was looking at a large elk or deer! (Santa was at Cabella's, our favorite store) We hope all have a very Merry Christmas!! We will be in sunny, Mesa Arizona!!!! Love to all!

Another snow day!!!















This day was so much fun, we took Thaya for her first sled ride and she didn't want to get off. Then we built a huge snowman and Thaya couldn't believe how big he was. By the end of the day he started to lean but it was so much fun building it together. Then Thaya decided she would wash herself in the washer, good thing she can't turn it on!!

One of Thaya's favorite places...



This one was taken just for Uncle Jay!!!






We went to visit the Dinosaur museum with our friends, The Kilpack's. Derrick has been friends/family with them since he was in the Navy. Thaya loves the dino museum, it is always so much fun to see her run around looking at everything. She always seems suprised to see all the animals. It is always a fun activity.
