Christmas Eve

We love the Christmas season.

We celebrated the Savior's birth by acting out his birth.

Everyone was able to open one present, and they all received pajamas.

We feel so blessed to have Grandpa living with us and love having him apart of all the fun.

August 22, Side by Side Fun with Uncle David

More time at David and Susan's where David took the boys on a side by side. 

It was so fun!

Everyone enjoyed riding and driving the side by side.

August 21st, Grandpa's Creek

We stopped to visit Grandpa and Grandma Burggraaf and got a good look at their fun creek that Grandpa has cleaned and put together.

They have ducks there and really large fish.

The next door neighbor had an ax throwing set up that the boys all enjoyed.

There's a view of the creek and patio from above.

August 14th, My friend time

We drove to Paris, Idaho and visited my dear friend, Elizabeth.

We found a cute moth caterpillar that we ended up taking with us on our vacation.

Talking with Elizabeth and spending time with her family was so wonderful.

She has such a big farm that was fun to see.

We went to Bear Lake and enjoyed the day with them as well.

Here's fun swimming at David and Susan's.

August 15th, Aunt Susan's

Fun time visiting Aunt Susan and Uncle David's.

It's one of our favorite places to visit.

Christen and her cute little girl were there.

We always enjoy swimming.

While Dad played some Disc Golf with Hiram and Jaden and Noah, we went on a nature walk.

Fun time at the park near David and Susan.

 

Flying to Ohio

I flew to Ohio to visit my sister.

I haven't been on a plane for a few years.

I was lucky and got a window seat on both flights.

Everyone was required to wear a mask.

I was a little worried about flying in a plane, but we made it just fine.

I was very happy to see Linda.

Joyanne's Cooking and Roommates

Joyanne is off at BYU in Provo.

She loves her roommates and being in her apartment.

She also is loving cooking, and making all these healthy meals.

School is going great for Joyanne, and she is doing well.

But we really miss her at home.
