New Year

Rather than go back and try go catch up on all that we've done since I've last posted, I guess I am just going to try to start fresh this year. However, as a summary:

Thanksgiving was awesome this year with my family. We had it at our house in Utah and all my family was able to come down to stay. It was so much fun! I would do it again in a heart beat. It was nice to be able to spend some quality time with everyone, rather than the typical "hi...bye" sort of visit. My family is awesome.

I went to China in December for work and it was quite the experience. It was neat to see a place I had never been to before, but I didn't really love all that I saw! :) Hong Kong was amazing though, and I would go back there again for sure.

Christmas was also great. We spent it down in SLC with Jason's family. His brother Brandon was in town for the holiday, and we always like it when we get to see him. We missed Shantel & Greg for sure! Hopefully everyone will be able to get together next year.

I also got to see Nikky Oswald over the break, and I miss her guts all the time so it was great to be able to hang out for the day. It was also nice to finally meet little Declan who is the cutest baby boy. He's such a happy baby! I can't wait until Nikky lives in Utah! I'm counting down the months...

For Christmas my wonderful husband got me a freaking awesome digital SLR camera and I love it. I'm currently learning to use all of its features, and I can't wait to dive in and take a million photos. If you are reading this blog than you probably know that i LOVE to take pictures. Love it!

Last weekend, Dee and I threw Jill a baby shower and she was kind enough to put off labor long enough for us to actually have it! It was a lot of fun, and it was great to hang out with her and meet some of her friends and family. I'll post some pictures on facebook later once I get them uploaded.

And on that note...Congrats, Jill! Sophia LoRee was born today and looks like she's a keeper! :) I can't wait to see her in person.
