Utah Trip #1 & Christmas...

{ UTAH }
Going home for Christmas was so much fun... But wow we're we busy. I don't think we EVER had a minute to just chill. We had so many family and friend parties, so many people to see and lots of places to eat-- Cafe Rio! haha Even though it was a bit overwhelming, it was awesome! In these pictures you'll notice I am wearing a lot of the same clothes... don't judge, I only had a 50 lb limit for my luggage. Its hard to pack for 2 weeks! haha I took SOOOO many pictures while we were in Utah, but here is just a little glimpse of our trip back home!!

Fun with the {JAZZ GIRLS!!}
These girls are amazing! We had a little get together with the dancers from my first year of Jazz. We had so much fun on the court, but we have even more fun just hanging out!

How about a little BLAST from the PAST!!


Me, Em, Jess & cute little Zaida!!

{My Sister...}

Christmas with the {KELLER'S!}
My amazing family...

The boys get spoiled by gma & gpa every year! Here they are with their new pj's and books...

My little brother plays basketball for BHS! Its so crazy, I can't believe he is that old. I feel like I should still be out there cheering! Its SO fun to watch him! He rocks!

Christmas with the {Stringhams!}
We didn't get to spend too much time with Colby's family over Christmas. His little sister had her baby in South Carolina so of course the first time Grandparents had to get out there. Baby Jude is so cute! I can't wait to meet him! But it was pretty weird not having Craig and Em home for the holidays. Its crazy how spread out our family is!
Alex is getting sooooo tall... I couldn't believe how much he had grown since the summer!

Brothers don't shake hands... Brothers gotta hug!!

Dorks...

{Friend Par-tay!}
We had a friend Christmas Party at the Redondo's... It was really good to see some of our friends that we haven't seen in a while! These girls were my best friends in high school. Its been a while since we have gotten together, but when we do-- its like nothin' has changed! We still laugh and pee our pants cause we still know how to have fun! Love ya girls!
The B Town Chicas!!!

Grandma Keller loves to get all dressed up and go out!!

Every year we have a Christmas cookie decorating party at my Aunty Kathy's house! I love the tradition and hope it keeps going and going!!

Colby is really good at decorating cookies... he takes it pretty serious.

We didn't do much for New Years because we had just got back from Utah. So we went to dinner on the boardwalk and just spent time with the TWO of us!

It's been a while....

So... Do you think I stink at this blogging thing or what?!? I think this is the longest I have gone with out blogging! Wowza!! But I will get back into the swing of things shortly! I was in Utah for 2 weeks in December, and again in January. I took a few pictures that I can blog about! I just enjoy reading and looking at other peoples blogs that I forget to keep mine going! I mean, let's be honest-- blogs are much more fun when you have cute kids to blog about! Anyway, thanks for updating all your blogs and keeping me entertained!! :)
Have a lovely week & stay tuned!!!
