christmas day

After traveling through the blizzard that hit West Jordan this morning, I made it to my parents with my sis and her family. We started the morning (late according to my brothers, but who doesn't sleep in when the kids are 20+?!) with the Hughes tradition of blueberry muffins and bananas in orange juice.

We have gotten bigger, but we are the same crazy kids we always were.




We opened some presents, played games, and had some hang out time.
Merry Christmas!

christmas eve

Christmas Eve festivities were at my house again this year. All the fam came over for games, food, and of course presents!


Based on the Reese family tradition, we have a yummy seafood dinner including my dad's fabulous clam chowder (mine made with corn instead of clams), crab, shrimp, bread. It is a feast!
Games are always a must when we all get together. We a number going, the Wii, Pass the Bomb, and of course hand and foot.


Then it was time for presents...
starting with the Christmas pj's.





The best present was from my little guy and having him with me to for the celebration.

holiday lights



Three girls with three boys all bundled up for the cold to enjoy the lights.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

my sis is in town

Let the party begin. My sister Amy arrived home on Saturday and brought a nasty storm with her from Boston. Fortunately, she made it in time for a birthday lunch for Heidi. Happy Birthday Little Sis! And we all got to meet our new nephew Knox.


She is in town for 3 weeks so we will have a lot of time to play during the holidays.
I love my sisters!

a few pics

Josh and I have had lots of fun over the last couple of weeks. We enjoy spending time with each other. Here are a few pictures of the different activities we have done.
