Merry Christmas!

For Christmas this year we weren't planning on being anywhere other than home in Oklahoma since I would be so close to my due date, but plans changed a bit as it got nearer. My brother was getting married in Colorado on the 17th of December. I really wanted to go and so we figured it'd be nice to be able to see both of our families at the same time in one trip.
We left a day after Nick got done with finals on the 14th and just got back on Monday the 26th. So we did end up being able to spend Christmas day with Nicks family which was really nice.We had an awesome time while we were there.
First we spent a few days mostly doing things with my family since they wouldn't be in town too long. The wedding was the main event. It was such a wonderful wedding and I'm so happy for my brother and new sis-in-law! They are such a cute, happy, and fun couple I couldn't have thought of a better girl for him. I'm so mad we didn't get pictures. We left early in the morning to the temple and I forgot to bring the camera and we didn't have time to go back to Nick's parents house all day. Luckily they will have some though :)

After my parents left we enjoyed spending time with Nick's family doing different activities. There was some skiing (not from me), bowling, A LOT of shopping, late night games (i'm surprised how late I actually stayed up most nights), sledding, Christmas, and visiting with my cousin and Nick's cousin... if you didn't know one of my cousins is married to Nick's cousins. It's pretty cool we both feel like we are getting a good visit out of seeing them because they are family to both of us :)

Here are some pictures from our vacation.

 One of the only pictures we got of my family while we were there (minus Matt, Nate, and Steph)

Getting ready to go outside. She insisted on wearing the goggles...

 Sledding!

 Nick loves the snow..

 So not a huge surprise that he would take a dive off a rock face first into the snow..

 And.. get buried in it. He's crazy, but I love him! I'm glad he can make it fun for himself :) snow makes me cold just looking at it...brr.

 Katelyn LOVED the sledding!

 There she goes. She would get some serious speed going down and daddy wasn't afraid to let her go by herself.. I might have stepped in and stopped her a couple of times cause she was going so fast haha.

Nick, Hayley, and Sydney enjoying the snow.

 Christmas!

 She was very happy to open gifts! Also very moody..that's what happens when she misses her nap :)

Nemo! She loves nemo.. calls him "momo"

 Me and Raquel! It was so good to see them

She's due like 3 days after me so of course we got a belly pic, it'll be fun to see her little guy come around the same time :)

 

  Bowling! 

Well that's about it. I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and great new year!
