holiday 2008 recap

Better late than never right...right?

We had a great holiday season this year. We were brave and made the 13 hour road trip to Boise for Thanksgiving (really long but so worth it),
and it was great to be home for a holiday. We fully experienced the craziness of shopping at 5am on black Friday, and I'd say reaped the rewards with some rockin' deals on Christmas gifts. We had a little get together with family and friends, and it was so fun to see the girls and the group of moms that I love so much.


We were able to break up the return trip and spend a day with Ty and Kumari at their new house in Lehi, UT, and I got to see the lights on Temple Square for the first time.

We spent most of the Christmas holiday at the Leavitts this year with Spencer's family. It was the first time they had all been together for Christmas in some 10 years.
Their tree this year was amazing, we spent way too many hours playing Rock Band on Christmas day (love the drums), and the food was incredible as always. I'd say these mustaches win for best gift at the goofy gift exchange.


I was able to squeeze a few photo appointments in over the break as well, including two weddings which I'm happy to report I finally completed and delivered to clients today, and we moved! We're finally getting settled, and I'm home free from photos until after the baby comes. Thank goodness.

Baby update: She's doing great, getting bigger and packing a mean punch. Two weeks to go and we're finally feeling ready. Can't wait to meet our baby girl.
