Christmas








We really should have taken more pictures during this wonderful Christmas season.
We were able to see both families, which was a blessing. We went snowboarding with my family in Idaho at targee. It was some of the best skiing I have had in years, the snow was deep and the weather was beautiful. After an awesome day of skiing we jumped into the warm outside pool, which was a blast till we had to get out and run in the freezing cold air to get dressed. We had some amazing food (of course made by my mom) and we had a ton of fun together. The next day we headed back to Utah for a fun filled week with Danny's family. We got to go to Tucano's to celebrate Danny's getting into dental school, and we got to meet Spencer's Girlfriend Megan. We then went to Temple Square to check out the beautiful lights. The next day Carol planned a bunco party and a surprise Eagle Scout Ceremony for Danny and his Brother who did their eagle scout but never had a court of honor. The court of honor was a big surprise, and the bunco was a blast.
On Christmas eve, we went to Jump on it and then went to a Nativity put on my the Snyder's ward primary. Then we did family dinner and Grandma gave everyone a present that happened to be p.j.'s. Christmas was a blast and we were able to see a lot of the Snyder family. Wendy and Nathan, took the time to plan a cool present for Carol and Steve, and Wendy took pictures and then got them printed and framed.
One of my favorite thing of this trip was when Morgan got to see her cousins, she learned the word cousins and would run around the house yelling cousins, cousins (it was adorable).
The next few days were filled with family and fun, but some of the highlights were bowling, and date night and playing ticket to ride (thanks Connor and Lindsey). Unfortunately we had to leave and get to the real world of work, but we had a wonderful time with all of our family.

I love the matching hats you and Morgan are sporting. And I was really confused about the scouting picture - even with the description you provided, I'm a bit confused. But congrats Danny on being an eagle scout.
