Christmas 2014 and New Years 2015

Well I know Christmas is long gone now but here is the update anyway.

We had a ton of fun. Christmas Eve was spent with Robert's parents.  We had a great dinner and then afterwards Robert's Grandpa came over.

Robert's family has a tradition of going around and then each person takes a turn telling each family member things they admire or appreciate about them.  It was really neat and and brought us all a little closer together.  Afterwards we put on our Christmas PJs (yes we have no kids and we still get Christmas Jammies), and watched Jingle All the Way.

Christmas morning we were totally like little kids.  We were up at 6:00 and ready to open presents. So silly I know.  We were just so excited we couldn't help it.

After we had our Christmas we went over to my parents house and hung out with them.  It was fun spending the morning with them.  We had Christmas brunch with the Corry fam and then we came home and were able to talk to McKenna on Skype.  She is the same ol' same ol.  It was nice to see her.  I can't believe she will actually be home in July.


We did a ton while we were on break.  We went sledding and Robert and I went to the live Nativity in Tuachan.  We also had a ton of Christmas parties we attended.






It's always a little sad when the holidays are wrapped up and the decorations are taken down.  We are excited for the new year and the adventures it will bring.

New Years we spent up North with Robert's Brothers.  It was complete with party poppers, sparkling cider, and the ball drop.  It was fun taking a break with the fam!





Cait has left on her mission and life has been absolutely insane but we love it!  Goals will be reached and dreams will be achieved.  Bring on 2015!
