New Years

Only 2 short days of being back form Colorado, we drove to Kingman to spend New Years and the weekend with the Peases. It is always fun to go to Kingman and spend time with family. I love it there! For some reason it seems like there house is in the county to me. It feels like there is nothing around which makes it peaceful and relaxing. I love that there is always something fun to do. We played Volleyball this trip and it was really fun. I also love having scripture study in by the wood burning stove. It was fun to see everyone, especially Jocelyn and Mike. We were sad that Alvin Couldn't be there, but glad Jess and Lewis could still come. And it's always great to see Grandma Lewis. She always keeps things lively and has such a good sense of humor!! We did miss Devin too(he was with Uncle Malin) Thanks for the fun weekend Mom and Dad!!

AVATAR

While we were in Colorado, as part of Branson's Christmas present, we went to see Avatar. We went with Jake, Adam, Leah, My Dad, Nate, Heston, me and Branson. We got to see it in the IMAX theatre in 3D! It was really an experience... nothing we have ever seen before. The story line wasn't the greatest(not worth seeing in a regular theatre) but the graphics were pretty amazing. The only thing I didn't love about it was the language. Mouths like sailors. We did look awesome in our glasses though!!

Christmas in COLORADO

This year we spent Christmas in Colorado with my family, the Stahleckers. I got to go for two weeks to vacation and spend time with all the family. Branson flew in on the 23rd and was able to stay a week. It was so fun to see everybody and spend time with family. My Mom and Dad, Jake and his kids, Shonn and Ticia and kids, Melissa and Heston and their girls, Nate and Monica and their boys, and our family. There were 23 of us! It was fun having Sidney there and she loved the time she got to have with her Grandma and Grandpa Colorado and all of her cousins! We feel so blesses to have such great families on both sides who are so loving and such good examples to us. We are so fortunate and feel so blessed to have the gospel in our lives, great families, a beautiful home, good friends, a great marriage, and of course... the best gift of all, SIDNEY!
