THE HOLIDAYS

Due to literally 2,000 pictures to choose from that were taken through the holidays, I decided to choose a "few" pictures to post in which most are of our little family. We did so many things with family and I will just name a few: dinner with Morgan's parents, Christmas Eve with the Reynolds, Morgan's family, and my family, bowling, games (usually "Bang"), service projects for my parents, my grandma and some family friends of ours, family pictures, frisbee golf (over the roof), and volleyball. The list goes on. We had a wonderful time with everyone. Morgan's brother, Brian, flew into town from New York for Christmas and we were able to see him a few times before he flew home. All of my siblings were in town and we got to skype with my brother Mikey who is on his mission in Guadalajara, Mexico. He's coming home in 2 1/2 months!!!

I apologize, all of these pictures are all very out of order.

A fun family photo we took while everyone was here. My sister Emilie, photoshopped Mikey into each photo. Can you find him in this one?


Playing the game of "Bang" (an italian card game). If you look closely, you will see a gun on the table. (A pellet gun my mom got for Christmas;)

Talking to Mikey on Skype. Do you see him waving? We all had such a good chat with him! I sure miss that kid.
Noel playing with her Xylophone that she got for Christmas.

My two most favoritest people in the whole wide world.

Christmas Eve.


Morgan and Brian.

Frisbee Golf.
Our cutie.
Just hanging around.
Another activity we did was learn how to do the waltz and the cha-cha. Kareena taught us all how to. She's amazing! Noel tried a few moves herself.
Watching volleyball.
Noel snuggling with her cousin Brianna, while watching Baby Einstein.
I love the close up shots! I can't get enough of them! The next 5 pictures are taken at my grandma's house in the bay area. It's so beautiful there.




Noel chillin' in the bean bag chair watching Baby Einstein, again. I think by this time she was starting to get sick. New Years Eve at 8pm we took her to a Rapid Care due to a high fever that wouldn't go down and we found that she had a double ear infection and a viral infection. She is still getting over it and it's been a couple weeks! Poor thing.
A couple of family pictures that my sister took of us.


Here are a few pictures of those we spent Christmas with in Morgan's family.
Morgan's uncle, his mother (Mary), and Grandma singing a Hungarian Christmas song.

Thanks to everyone we were able to spend time with this Christmas season. We love you all and miss everyone dearly! Thanks for making our Christmas wonderful!
