AZ and Utah


We spent Christmas in AZ with the Willilams Family. We had great times and it is always too short but here are a few highlights.

Polar Bear Club
About a month before we came to AZ, Jody relayed a message from Kirk to have Jason bring his swimsuit because he wanted to jump in the pool on Christmas Day and he wanted Jason to come with him. Well Jason was happy to help out.


Afterwards, Kirk and Jason reminisced about times when they had been in Reeeally cold water in the past and they both agreed this may have been the coldest, believe it or not! In AZ? who knew??


Kaleb making the biggest spaceship ever!

Isnt that the cutest smile ever! It is easy getting that kid to smile for the camera :)

We had so much fun in AZ! We also had Christmas dinner with our cousins the Ensigns on Christmas Day, watched White Christmas, went to the temple, took family pics (sigh), played at the park with Carpenter's and Rasmussen's, visited Katie, had dinner at Tia Rosa's, saw the temple lights and just enjoyed our break being with family and friends.



Then we went to Utah...


Jason and I had fun driving around SLC and seeing our old stompin grounds, all of which never really collided while we both lived there at the same time. B&D Burgers was delicious, temple square was fun, seeing old friends was great, and enjoying the snow was fantastic (especially with the right gear)

LeeAnn, Staci, and Jeanna at Cafe Rio-Its hard to believe we've known each other for 7 years or more :) Unfortuneately Leslie couldnt make it but fortuneately Jason and I were able to go to lunch with her and Greg the next day :)












Dave and Jason at the McDonald's in Heber. Those basketball games were addictive...I had the record for about as long as those two could stand it and then my record was history

We stayed with the Lundberg's in Park City and then hit the slopes. We had so much fun staying with them and their kids. We especially enjoyed building a sledding run in their yard. Jason dug a pathway all the way up the hill behind their house. It was a blast!

Jeanna snowboarding


We also got to stay/visit with some of Jason's friends: Dave and Elisa, and DJ and Katherine. Thanks to everyone who let us stay with them and who took time out to hang out with us. We always wish we had more time but we enjoyed our holiday break!! And thanks to Michelle & Ben for driving us to and from the airport!!
