Family Weekend

A few weekends ago Paul and I went Greer and stayed in a cabin at the Greer Lodge Resort. We had a blast! My mom, sister, Paul's mom and dad and 3 dogs came with us

It was a big cabin that fit all of us just fine. The resort was so beautiful with a lot of outdoor activities for there guest to do. My mom and I went kayaking on there pond, which was fun. We took long walks with the dogs (we really wiped them out)

just really enjoyed our time together in the cool mountain air.

Great Weekend Getaway!

Paul, my sister, my mom and I went to Flagstaff for the weekend a few weeks ago. We all needed a little get away. We were first thinking that we wanted to go to Greer and stay at these cabins but plans changed so we went up to Flagstaff. It was great up there. It was actually cold that weekend. It was rainy and hailing and even snowed up on the peaks. We went to dinner at Beaver Street Brewery and had a good time. When we came out our battery in the car was dead. Thank goodness that they people that were parked next to us were leaving at the same time and were nice enough to give us a jump. Then we had to go to the Honda dealership to have our battery checked out. It turned out that the jump gave a good jult to the battery and it was fine. We stayed at Little America and had a good time.

The next morning we went up to Snow Bowl and took the ski lift. That was really fun and cold. With the weather the way it was that weekend it was really cold up at the top. It had snowed a good inch up at the top. That was a lot of fun and REALLY pretty. All in all it was a good weekend and relaxing.

TEA PARTY!!!!!!!

With they way things are going in the country and all of the spending that is taking place I felt that I needed to go to the capital building yesterday and protest!!! My mother-in-law, sister and a friend from our ward and I all went to protest. It was a blast to be around so many other people who believe the same way you do. I made four signs with some really great slogans for all of us. There were some great speakers who voice what they taught and it got us all screaming. I love going to these type of events because it makes you feel that you are apart of something. It was great. We were all proud "Right Wing Extremist" hahahaha. I love politics!!!

Annual "Fab Five" Christmas Party!

We always take at least one photo like this for some-reason.
For the past 3 years my old roommates and I have been getting together for our annual Christmas Party! We have such a blast and it is great to see each other. We talk about old times and all the fun we used to have together. It was great to see everyone.

Disneyland

Well we just got back from Disneyland today and we really had a good time. Paul and I had never been to Disneyland at Christmas time and it was definitely worth going this time of year. They really do it up at Christmas. Nighttime is so beautiful. There are lights everywhere and the decorations come to life. It was also really cold (the winter blast hit) and that helped put us in the Christmas mood. We love the place and I would recommend going at this time of year. Summer is always fun but when it is all decorated up for Christmas it is just awesome.

We also went to the beach in La Jolla. It is always nice to go and relax by the beach for a while.

Why do people do this to animals??

Well, Halloween was here and Paul and I bought the dogs some costumes at Target. They are so cute!!! Lola was a pumpkin and Jett was a purple bat. They actually left them on for a while.

Utah

Will I have really never been to Utah. Everyone thinks that I have been there just because I am LDS. Not every LDS person has been there. My mom, sister and I went to Utah to visit my Aunt and her kids. They had just moved down from Oregon so now it is easier to see them. We had such a great time with them. There family is so much fun! We had movie night, craft night and then the 3rd night we were in Park City and hung out. It was fun! Park City is such a cute place. We went to the Olympic Park and went through the museum and also did the zip line down the mountain. That was fun. We actually got my mom to go down. She wanted to go back down the mountain but once you got up there the only way down was the zip line. She did it and had a great time.
We also went through the Salt Lake Temple which was so beautiful! Temple square was amazingly beautiful.
We had such a great time it was one of the best vacations I have been on!
