We kicked off Christmas break with our trip on the Polar Express. Due to Matt ending up in the hospital in Vegas with health issues he and Raquel and family hadn't made it to Utah yet. Luckily he got discharged in time to head up to Utah for the train. It was a snowy drive and we are happy they were safe since it was Raquel sons first time ever driving in snow! But seriously they barely made it!
It was a super fun night! The last time we went Maddie was a baby so the all the kids were super excited! We hung out at the station until it was time to board. We all squeezed in and enjoyed some Christmas music, silly elves, games, cookies and a visit from Santa!

Christmas Eve -
Charlie and Cora hosted a little get together on Christmas Eve. We played games, visited and ate dinner. It was fun getting to be with lots of family! Susan and family were still in Florida and weren't able to come.

Christmas Morning! Santa came and brought lots of presents :) Christmas day was a Sunday so we got up early and did presents. We then got ready and went to church and then to my parents house for Christmas dinner and more family time.

New slippers for the three youngest!
The next day we all went to Boondocks and played! Jared was nice enough to cover it for everyone! We had a blast and played hard! Grayson zonked out while we were there.
Hanging out in Landon's new chair from the grandparents!
We went to Boondocks again for New Years Eve.
That night we stayed up and played games as a family.
Happy New Year! Hoping for a great 2017!
