Home for Christmas. . .

Five days in North Carolina was not enough! We flew in Christmas Eve and got there at about 3pm-- everyone else was already there and the house was buzzing. We had a great program that night and Christmas morning was amazing!! One of the best I can remember.

Christmas morning-- my parents are looking at a calander they got of my sister Sarah's family:

Everyday we did something different-- volleyball, basketball, frisbee golf, running, swimming, temple, playing Ticket to Ride, making struddel, eating at Maggianos, playing mafia. . . Here is everyone (I'm taking the picture) at one of the holes during disc golf.

Snow days!

It has been amazingly beautiful here! Moab had it's first snow day (I think in like 25 years) yesterday. . . I woke up to find about 9 inches of snow covering everything! They weren't planning on plowing the road until noon, so I strapped on my cross country skis and took off!




Brian climbed with Skyler Monday morning, but it was so cold that they both called it quits after one climb. Good thing, because about an hour later it started dumping snow. We went and did the devils garden loop at arches-- probably the only day all year that you could do that hike and not see a soul.
