December

Christmas Time


Grandma's and Grandpa's Visit to Logan
This was so much fun!  Grandma and Grandpa came up to visit for Christmas for a weekend.  We went on a road trip to Bear Lake and had a great lunch at a pizza place and went to Salt Lake City to the living planet aquarium and then saw the Christmas lights.  It was so much fun!  Grandpa and Grandma brought so many presents for Natalie!  She had so much fun unwrapping them!

This year we had a Pe'a family chirstmas party and it was so much fun!  The kids put on a play of the baby Jesus and the three wisemen.  It was really cool!   They even had one of the uncles dress up as Santa and had out presents to every little girl and boy lol.  It was such a great party!  Natalie had so much fun, but didn't really like Santa quite yet.




The wonderful pig we ate,

Christmas early with Grandpa and Grandma Lowen.  They came down to Logan a week before christmas to celebrate it with us.  They brought lots of fun presents for Natalie that she loved!!  It was such a fun and cool trip

Natalie had so much fun opening her presents for Grandma and Grandpa! She dug right into them and threw that paper everywhere!  It was so much fun to watch her have so much fun

Daddy's new church shoes he got

And they fit like a glove

Natalie investigating Lucky.....Lucky is not too sure about baby though


More presents



Her barn animals that Grandma and Grandpa gave her...she loves them by the way


they cutest little sweater I have ever seen!

Last day before they head back to Canada

Out to breakfast at Denny's



Its hard to tell, but she was chasing Lucky around the parking lot up in Bear lake.  She thought it was so much fun

Our day in Salt Lake City





We took a trip to living planet aquarium, which was a huge success.  Everyone loved it!  Grandpa of course, but Natalie loved watching the colorful fish swim back and forth

Wasn't so happy about the giant frog though lol

They had these crazy mirrors that caught Natalie's attention


Fishies fishies everywhere!



Good times with Grandpa

And we are all tuckered out after a long fun day in Salt Lake City

We tried putting her in the cart.....but that didn't work

So we layed her down in the cart....and success



She fell asleep by the christmas tree and all the presents, so we all slept there that night....and no one stirred not even a mouse....



Trying to climb the presents


....and fell off of them







In the candy store at Bear river...it was pretty cool!






There was a little bell on this car that she loved to play with!  It was hard getting her away for lunch



It all looks so good!  Christmas time is the best!
