Holidays!

Pete and I had a great holiday! We both had some time off work/school so it was nice to go see family and spend some time together.

Pete next to the tallest Christmas tree in the U.S.---110 feet. It's not far from where we live so we had to take a photo op.

I think Santa is grimacing.

We asked Santa for an interest-free loan for medical school this year, but I think he forgot. Maybe next year.....


CHRISTMAS

We spent Christmas with my family this year in SLC. Most of our footage was on video camera this year, but we have a few shots to share.

Eastley kids home for the hoo-lidays.

Celebrated my sister's birthday. Woot woot!


Pete and I jamming out the Christmas duets.

Making the annual "Grandma Huish" gingerbread house.

Pete always has to put a 'jibber' by the house. We didn't have the right candy for a snowboarder this year, so he grudgingly had to do a skiier.

Christmas morning....he got really excited when he saw gushers in his stocking. I think that was his favorite gift all day.

My mom made us a wedding quilt for Christmas this year. We've been waiting and waiting for 2 years and are so excited to have it!


We were also able to see a few friends before we headed south.

My friend/former roommate Hailey and new baby Ava.

Friends from Weber days.....the group keeps growing! Pete and I missed the memo that we were supposed to bring a baby to the party. Whoops! :)


NEW YEAR'S EVE


After Christmas we headed south for St. George. We spent New Year's Eve with Pete's family and some of their good friends. We played a bunch of games from "Minute to Win It." It was a riot!


Here is everyone making their New Year's Eve hat. I didn't realize how uncreative I was until I married into the Dalton clan.

Please ignore the double chins.....it's the camera angle, I swear! :)

Happy New Year! (My favorite hat is the disco lady on the far right. Complete with disco ball and everything! Hehehe.)

Hope you all had a great holiday! On to 2011!

Ummm hello hottie, you look stunning! Looks like you guys had tons of fun and I'm glad you finally updated this thing! My only question is why didn't I know you were up here for the Holidays?? And I guess the second question is why didn't we get together?! I guess I'll have to come see you in AZ again:)

I love the hats! What a fun tradition. Maybe we'll have to try it...

If you ever need to take a baby again and don't want to go through the hassle of making your own, you can borrow one of mine!

Good to see what you guys are up to!

You look gorgeous as always. Please fill me in on who does your hair, I will even travel to AZ :) I love the New Year's hats, what a great idea!! How is the job going? I am looking right now, but it's tricky with 2 little ones.
