We left around 6:30am on the 23rd to go to Utah. Aiden was pretty excited to go visit Grandma & Grandpa. Here are some pictures from our Utah visit!
Long 14 hour drive. Jerel and switched every 3 hours and only stopped at gas stations.
Jade was happy to get a little brake from her car seat.
They did really well for the most part. Jade wasn't happy by the time we got to Provo and just wanted out. Aiden was really good and shared the iPad.
Surprising Grandma Neesey & Papa Al. We got there around 9:30pm.
Jade was a little on the shy side and wasn't sure about everyone holding her. She mostly just wanted Mommy to hold her.
The next day I took Aiden to visit my mom before Grandpa Eldon's Christmas Eve party, while Jade napped. I called her before hand to make sure she was home and told her I would call her right back but instead she got a knock at the door. She sure wasn't expecting to see Aiden and I.

Aiden found Uncle Josh's headphones and new exactly what to do with them. Just like Daddy!
For New Years Eve we celebrated at Jerel's parents and invited my parents, my brother Joshua & my sister Natalie & her family. Alisha was sick so she couldn't come :(
Jade and I before bedtime, Aiden was already asleep.
We had a lot of fun playing games with my nieces while the boys watched a movie downstairs- except my dad & Scott who fell asleep early.
Aiden and Emma had fun running around the house playing together.
Aiden taught Jade naughty things...
Jade and Papa Al.
Can't get enough of that Papa!
Jade gigles. I have a video of Aiden giggling with Papa Al too.
Christmas night my nephew Hunter fevered and wasn't feeling good but was fine the next day. But then Jaxon wasn't feeling good fallowed by Brooklyn and then Alisha so we didn't get to see as much of them as I would have liked. I was however lucky enough to be able to go to the temple with my Mom, sister Alisha, Grandma and Aunt Kathy the day before Alisha got sick. The last day we were in Utah we got to spend the day with Alisha and her kids.

We then went to dinner with my parents, Jerel's parents & Alisha & her kids.
Bye bear! See ya later! We sure had a great time visiting family and time passes oh so quickly. So glad we were able be with family for the holidays. Sure missed my brother Ryan & his family & Ash & hers but other than that it was a great visit.
