Christmas week fun..

We went on a family hike called the "Way Up Hike".  It was hard but so beautiful!

After the hike we had a delicious lunch at Board and Brew.

That evening we played our favorite "Burn the House Down" Game.

Temple Trip

After the temple we met my parents at the Shake Shack!

I LOVE that place!

Christmas Day!

One of the main reasons we went to San Diego was because my brother Scotty and his family were going to be there from Hawaii.

These cousins love each other and have so much fun!

They all slept in the same room together and woke up together on Christmas morning!

The gathering in the hall prior

and headed down the stairs...

They were pretty excited about their gifts.

After opening gifts, we got ready for church and then headed to Grandma Lops' house for brunch and to open presents with them.

We then went to church with Mark's family!

It was wonderful - I actually love church on Christmas, it really helped me remember what the purpose of Christmas is all about!

My mom made some delicious lunch on Christmas Day!

The weather was incredible, and we could eat out on the back patio!

I didn't get any pictures of dinner at Grandma Lops' house.

Pam made some prime rib, and we just had a nice, quiet dinner with Sue, Pam, Doreen and Anna.  We played this fun game called Tellestrations.  It was fun to play with Sue, since her mind is failing, and she would draw some funny stuff.
