Utah

 Joey and Katie had an opportunity to go on a vacation to a resort in Mexico, so I stayed with the children while they were gone. I was afraid Scarlett wouldn't be comfortable with me, but was pleasantly surprised when she came right to me.
 Abby and Kevin came over Sunday to go to church with us. I'm not sure I could have done it without them!
 It snowed a lot that week! The kids liked to play in it, but got pretty cold before too long. Carly's family came Wednesday, so were there with us part of the time. Rich took the girls skiing  and stayed in Sandy, so it was just Carly, me and Evan mostly. Evan is a favorite cousin, and Jackson and Daniel really enjoyed having him around.

 Jackson took this picture of Annie when I left my phone sitting out!

This is where Joey and Katie were while we were all freezing!

 Carly doesn't love dogs, but Annie is pretty cute.

SAN FRANCISCO


Charles had a one day meeting in San Francisco and I got to go with him. I rode BART out to Lafayette to see Sarita and the girls Friday, and Saturday they rode in to SF to hang out with us.

And here is a picture of Megan and Lexi on their trip to Hawaii.

THE REST OF CHRISTMAS


Carly's and Joey's families joined us a couple of days after Christmas. It's fun to see the cousins enjoying each other.

Evan and Jackson are cute together.
We discovered that Sophie is big enough to sit in a swing at the park, and she loved it!
Stella didn't even care if anyone was out there with her while she played in the sandbox.
Bass Pro Shop is always good for some entertainment.
This baby is getting big!

Jesse and Sarita blessed Sophie in Redhill Ward on Christmas Day.



 We went to Scandia one morning and the kids had fun on the rides.
 Stella wore stickers on her face.
