| This little beauty is growing up! |
 |
| She has the cutest facial expressions! She loved the park! |
 |
| There was lots of play time... |
 |
| ...and quiet time too... |
 |
| ...and time sitting on the stairs playing with our phones. |
 |
| Thanks, Dan, for fixing our ceiling! |
A couple weeks after Thanksgiving Ashley, Jason, and Emma came back for another visit.
 |
| Emma liked our Christmasy wall. |
 |
| What's with the camera always being on?? |
 |
| She wants to climb up everything... |
 |
| ...and she is getting pretty good! |
 |
| That was Scott’s birthday weekend too, it was fun having them all here! Happy birthday Scott! |
Christmas Day was really nice, we had the Robinson's over for dinner and hung out and played games. It’s so nice having Jo Ann living here so that she can be at everything!!
 |
| Merry Christmas! |
After Christmas, Kevin and Becky and their kids/grandkids came for a visit. It’s always fun having them here!
 |
| We played frisbee golf... |
 |
| ...went bowling... |
 |
| ...picked lemons... |
 |
| ...and tangelos... |
 |
| ...played games... |
 |
| ...and again, ate a LOT!! |
 |
| But mostly we did a lot of just hanging out... |
 |
| ...which is the best! |
 |
| Buca di Beppo was yummy and fun. |
 |
| Making homemade gyoza was more yummy and more fun! |
 |
| Finally got the hang of wrapping by the time we were almost finished! |
 |
| Thanks Abbey, for the fun cooking class! |
 |
| Delicious! And a super fun New Year’s Eve!! |
 |
| Grandma Klundt’s peanut butter balls are a favorite and a Klundt family tradition. |
 |
| And learning how to make them was another big hit (oh and pretzels too)! |
 |
| Abbey's two little girls, Ruby... |
 |
| ...and June were so fun to have here...and so cute too! |
 |
| Ruby LOVED riding in the wagon... |
 |
| June is ready for some frisbee! |

 |
| Hmmmm.... |
 |
| So much fun! |
 |
| There's that camera again! |
Thanks for coming you guys!! After New Year’s we drove up to Utah for Camden’s baptism! We can’t believe he is 8 years old already. It was so fun to be able to celebrate his birthday and share his baptism day with him.
 |
| Our first sighting of snow on the way up! (It’s on that mountain way out there!) |
 |
| We stopped in St. George and had lunch with Gary, Cheryl, and Katie. So good to see them and catch up! |
 |
| Camden’s birthday party! An escape room... |
 |
| ...birthday presents... |
 |
| ...and slime cake! |
 |
| Happy birthday Camden!! We love you! |
 |
| It was Red Robin for dinner (or should I say dessert?)...Camden got a HUGE birthday surprise! |
 |
| I can do this! |
 |
| Wesley offered his help. |
 |
| Taking a break... |
 |
| It was awesome!! |
 |
| The next day Camden was baptized! Loved sharing that experience with him! Congratulations Camden! |
 |
| We also took advantage that day of a chance to play in the snow... |
 |
| ...and do some bike riding. |
 |
| Now that's bike riding! |
 |
| Learning how to use his new compass. |
Saturday evening we got together with Sara, David, Hannah...
 |
| ...and this cutie! Aedan is growing up so fast! |
 |
| It was so good to be with everyone and see how well they are doing! |
 |
| The waitress told us to make funny faces...some of us did. |
 |
| Sunday we had some more play time with Camden and Wes... |
 |
| ...and play we did! |
 |
| Quieted down with a few rounds of Banana Blast... |
 |
| ...Pinball Science... |
 |
| ...and Memory! |
 |
| Then it was off to Jared and Cate’s for some more family time... |
 |
| ...complete with homemade pizza... |
 |
| ...the old fashioned way... |
 |
| It was so yummy, I could not stop eating it! Nope, not telling how many pieces I ate! |
 |
| ...and homemade cheesecake, compliments of Jared...it was DELICIOUS!! Thank you Jared! |
We have absolutely LOVED all the family time we have had over the past couple of months. We love you and feel so blessed coming into this New Year. Looking forward to many more adventures in 2020!
