On New Year's Eve, we had all six of our kids at home. So, obviously, we didn't go out! We had a little party with our family at our house. We played board games, watched movies, watched the Hannah Montana concert on Disney, had alot of snacks, and even turned the pool heater on so that the kids could go swimming! I bought them all some noise makers and whistles to blow at midnight, and all of them stayed up, except for Brylee!
On New Year's Day we all slept in! That afternoon, I cooked dinner and the missionaries in our ward, Elder Bitton and Elder Beatty came over and hung out all afternoon! We had alot of fun playing Monopoly, and snacking!

That night, someone broke into Brian's truck and stole the new GPS that I bought him for Christmas. They broke the driver's side window out to get to it. We were not very happy about that! But it is all fixed now. 
Last week, Sarah Carter, one of the girls I knew from when I worked at Kolob Canyon RTC, flew in from Minnesota and stayed with us for a couple of days. It was so good to see her, I have really missed her. She is a true inspiration to me! She is one of the most incredible people that I know. I am so proud of her!After having Sarah to myself for a couple of days, we went to Cedar City and stayed with our friend KayLyn, who worked with me at Kolob. Our friend Blaney, who was on a break from graduate school in Idaho, came for a visit as well. It was a big Kolob reunion! It was alot of fun!
Brian turned 31 on January 14! We were going to do something really fun and exciting for him, but instead me and the kids were all home sick with the flu. At least he didn't catch it! We did manage to get him a really cute cookie monster cake, though!
