12 Days of Christmas

We had a great week in Tucson! Here is just a quick overview of our break summed up in the 12 Days of Christmas!

ON the 12th day of Christmas my True Love gave to me:
12 Straws for the Family Home Evening Activity
11 Cast members for the nativity Scene on Christmas Eve

10 Sticky Fingers 9 People happy about the snow (with a disappointed person behind the camera)
8 Tired kiddos
7 Frosted Christmas Trees
6 Games of Speed chess 5 times four mouths to feed 4 Children that don't have proper snow gear... hence the bathrobes :) 3 Hours of opening presents one by one (we were elected present passer outers)
2 Buzz Light Year Pajamas (Who knew that Jack Sparrow liked Buzz Light Year)
1 Great Vacation with our families!

Unfortunately we didn't get any pictures with Nana and Papa, or Kristen and Jared, or Mom... but we do have an amazing video of her dancing...


Among other activities during our stay we could include Pickle Ball, a dinner with Allen's friends from Tucson, basketball, racquetball, cards, movies, sad sad football games and just spending time with the ones we love. We had such a great time in Tucson. Thank you Nana and Papa, Kristen and Jared, Mom Sabey, Mom and Dad Burnett, Peter and Kristen, Richard and Jackie, and Laurel and Craig, and all of our nieces and nephews for making it all possible. (And sorry we brought the sickness)

How fun to hear from you! How are things at OJHS?? I still miss everyone, even though it's been a whole year and a half! Crazy! Say hi to Camille, Jake, etc. for me! I loved reading about those buttons your kids made for you. Junior high kids really are a lot more fun that people think! :)
