Christmas

For Christmas, I got to spend a lot of quality time with my brother Bryce and my parents. Josh got to spend a lot of quality time with a snow plow. I'm pretty positive I had a lot more fun than he did! Bryce and I were in Rupert for about 6 days and Josh was in Rupert for about 6 hours, probably less. Even though I spent the majority of the Christmas holiday without my husband, I spent it with my family and it was really fun.

We played a lot of games and Bryce and I tried out something new. Kiteboarding in the snow right outside our house! Ok, Bryce did it and I watched and documented the experience.

Bryce also made a video of it on YouTube. check it out! Snow Kiteboarding.

We had chili and cinnamon rolls at my Grandparents house on Christmas eve with all the family that could make it. It was really fun hanging out with our cousins and we even stayed up until midnight playing games and laughing at our cousin Whitney's house.

Ice road to Grandmother's house we go! 

Bryce and I realized we had on Christmas pants! 

Grandma and Grandpa opening a present from my Mom

Christmas morning Mom woke us all up blasting Mannheim Steamroller and we opened presents with Josh on Facetime. After that he jumped in his truck and headed up to Rupert.

Mom was freezing opening presents so Dad "made" her a fire. haha 

While Josh was driving, we were all talking to Elder Jurgensmeier! It was so fun to be able to actually see him and talk to him. The whole family got to join in because of Google+. I love Google+!

Other then talking with Kevin, my favorite part was when my two nephews Tate and Josh saw each other on the screen. They started talking and had their own little conversation. It was so cute! I miss those boys!

I was REALLY excited when he got there!

Josh got there and we ate a delicious dinner of Au Gratin potatoes, ham, and homemade rolls. Love my momma's cooking! We played a game and then Josh headed back to Midway to go to sleep so he could wake up and clear snow for the next three days... What a fun job!
