Time to Catch Up...

I've really been slacking lately! We were gone all Christmas Break, and it's just been busy since then. Over Christmas we were able to go to the cabin in Island Park with my family for a few days. There was no snow, so we were only able to go on one little short ride, and there wasn't much we could do. We all had to be careful not to hit something. So most of our time was spent inside the cabin playing games and watching movies, and it still turned out to be a lot of fun!

We were able to watch the Boise State game in order to celebrate Verla's birthday with everyone when we got back. After the game, we headed over to visit Brad who'd just come home from his mission. Everyone is so glad to have him back! Christmas Eve was also spent at Mark and Verla's. It was a lot of fun. The whole family was able to be there and Grandma and Grandpa Wrigley were able to join us as well. We ate a wonderful dinner then all got in a circle to play a game. We played the game where as someone reads a story, you pass presents left and right. Between all the kids and Grandpa Wrigley it was quite the experience. The kids then all got dressed up in little nativity outfits while Mark read the Christmas story. They all looked so cute! It was so fun to watch all of them open presents and participate in all the scavenger hunts!

Christmas Day was spent with my family. Bridger came in early to wake Brogan and I up, and we all headed upstairs to wake my parents up. My siblings were all able to see what Santa brought then we had breakfast and got ready for church. The Christmas program was really good, but my brothers were pretty antsy to get home and finish opening up presents. After every present Bridger would open, he would jump up and down and say "Yes! This is exactly what I wanted!" We all couldn't help but laugh at him. The rest of the day we played games, hung out, and enjoyed each other's company. It was a great Christmas!
