Christmas Time

We were in Salt Lake for Christmas this year with Matthew's family.  Austin met so many new family members and did surprisingly well at recognizing everyone.  We had a great time and loved the time to spend with family that we don't see as often as we would like.  Despite the flu bug getting to just about everyone we had an overall great trip.
Austin loves opening presents.  I think it was mostly the ripping paper part that appealed to him but he also loves his new toys. Here is Austin Christmas morning:

We got to spend lots of time with cousins while in Utah. We got to meet Aaron for the first time.  We moved away just days before he was born and finally we are able to meet!  Austin and Aaron were so handsome in matching church outfits.
Jenna and Cole were also in Utah during Christmas. So we were able to get some quality cousin time.

It snowed! Austin was a little confused about what all the snow was about but he loved sledding and playing in it.

Last of all here are a random assortment of pictures from Christmas of us having fun and hanging out.
Playing Just Dance 2.   LOVE this game!

Matthew is still on crutches and couldn't bowl so he hung out with Aaron instead

What a great trip! I love the pics of Austin all bundled and red cheeked in the snow. And now, back to the real world of missing daddy's. :( But hooray for your return so we can play!
