We got to go home for Christmas this past December, and it was so much fun! We spent 10 days visiting friends and family and packed a ton in. It was kind of fun vacationing to Utah because we got to do a lot of things we didn't normally do when we lived there. The trip was much needed for John to get a little time off work and we enjoyed the snow but were happy to come home to 70 degree weather! Here are some pics from our time in Utah!

| Christmas morning. Johnie LOVED opening presents! Though most of the time he preferred playing with the paper instead of his actual gifts. |
