Christmas and the New Year

We weren't expecting to travel much during the holidays, but it turned out that we drove all around Southern California. It was wonderful! 

First we got to go to the Grace Community Christmas Concerts. We were able to go with some of our dearest friends; Naim and Monique. The Lord has blessed us so much with this friendship! After the concert we stopped by Aroma Cafe' before heading home. Delish!


The next day we were up at 4am to head to Bakersfield to see Jess, Caleb, and the kids. It was Kyle's first time to meet Amelia. He instantly fell in love!




After our sweet time in Bakersfield we headed to LA to see Kyle's family. Christmas Eve is his mom's birthday. It was a full day of everything she wanted. We watched the Hobbit and had family dinner. 


We spent Christmas morning with Kyle's parents before heading to San Clemente to be with my oldest sister and her family.




I missed getting a picture of Dan :( but the Wolf hat made it into a couple of pictures. We got David a wolf hat and Danny a tiger hat. Danny wasn't quite as thrilled about his as David was, but I think they were enjoyed all in all.

We loved being able to see family!

When we finally came home I called the Tracy's and asked if we could play Sardines and have Nurf battles in their house. I don't know if I was delirious, or just hyper from being on a break from school, but either way we spent the night acting like 12 year old's and having a blast! 

The year ended, and started with Kyle and I really eating healthy, working out, and reading The Hobbit! I might lose my voice by the time I'm done with reading this and The Lord of the Rings, but we are thoroughly enjoying it!
