Family comes to visit for Christmas

My family came out for Christmas and we had a blast!  Celeste, Brandon, Mom and Dad got here on Christmas Eve day.  Everyone else arrived on Christmas Day.
On Saturday we went to Temple Square and looked at the lights.  It was COLD; I think the high that day was 12. 
Dennis and Sara coloring pictures with the kids. 
There was lots of football watching by the guys and lots of playing with the kids.
Sunday afternoon we went sledding up AF Canyon. 
Cambry is not exactly a daredevil and one ride was enough for her.  She was not a fan.
Sunday night Darin and his family came over with Ann and Roland for dinner.  It was a great evening and we played Pie Face.  Izzy LOVED loading it with whip cream and thought it was hilarious every time someone got pie faced!  Sunday was also our 12 year anniversary!  It was spent hanging out with family, which is just fine with me.  Mike and I get away plenty on dates and trips, so it was fun to all be together as family!
Monday we went skiing at Snowbird, thanks to my Mom and Dad for watching the babies.  Izzy took an all day ski class.  I thought she might get tired, but she absolutely loved it!  When I picked her up, she asked if she could keep going, so we did a couple runs together.  She can get on and off the lift by herself and go down the green bunny hill by herself.  She is such a great skier and I love watching her learn and enjoy a sport. 
Suzette and I don't get away very often on the slopes, so it was great to spend time together. 
We all went our separate ways due to ski ability, but we all met up for lunch.  Sara is the only girl who can keep up with the boys!
Darin and his kids met us at Snowbird too!  It was a mini family reunion!
Izzy showing me her skills.
Papa did just fine taking care of the babies!  
On Tuesday some people went to the movies, the girls got pedicures, and then people started to trickle out. 
The girls were excited to take a bath together one night!

It was great to spend time with Celeste.  She is such a great sister and an example to me in pursuing your dreams. 
It's not easy to get 4 kids for a picture.  These girls love their Grandma. 
Brielle and Posey had fun getting to know each other. 
These 2 are going to be best buddies!
