Holiday Highlights

I would LOVE to go into detail on every single thing that happened over the holidays, but that would be a LONG and boring post... so I'll just fill you in on the best parts...

We spent nine lovely days at home!! 

Chance talked us into driving up Friday night after work to go to Bryce and Amanda's Christmas party.... SO glad we did! It was a blast to see all our friends. All the girls were running around in long john jammies all night :)

Christensen Family Christmas Party

Getting a FREE manicure and a bunch of products...thanks to my sweet friend Amanda

Prime rib din at Mom's house with the whole fam

Sleeping at the Christensen's for Christmas Eve...and Aust waking up at 4:30!

Aysha's elf on the shelf leaving her a note to help grandpa put up his tree to get off the naughty list! She decorated it all by herself 

Spending Christmas day with our families, playing Just Dance with my sissys and celebrating my dad's birthday! Ps we gave him his very first digital camera and he is SO excited about it.

Sledding day at my mom's. Aust and I spent all day with the kids building an awesome track! We had a sleepover and grandma let them go night sledding... THE BEST! 

Hunter and Aysha playing Doggie Doo. Ever heard of this game????! Here's how it's played. Feed the wiener dog (with that gooey flubber stuff) then squeeze the "leash", the dog poops it out then you shovel up the poop. It's disgusting but it will definitely give a goooood laugh!

Seeing Dallas' first apartment! 

Wright family Christmas party

Wedding dress shopping with my mom and Austin's mom, Lisa. EEEEEK 5 months away... it's coming quick!! 

Ryder was being the sweetest, most cuddly boy ever! He's never like that, so I took full advantage. He would just come hug me and say... "I wuv you Hannah". Melt my heart! There were many many snuggles, hugs, kisses, tickle wars and silly baby talk with all 5 of my nieces and nephews. (that is definitely one plus to living away. When I see them now they're all excited rather than like "eww stop kissing me!")

Another sledding day with all the kids and my dad

 Playing with baby Kai... it makes me sad how fast they grow up! Austin is completely obsessed with him...talk about baby hungry

Spending NY eve with my babe back at home. We had the most amazing fondue dinner, laughed a lot and barely made it to midnight. 

And to finish off the festivities... we got a surprise visit from Chance and Bryce. Sometimes you just need to getaway. I'm thankful that we are that for Chance. 

Christmas time is so magical with little kids around. I am so blessed to have the family and friends that I do. 2012  was a great year for Austin and  I and am looking forward to an even better 2013!
