Christmas...UT then AZ

We celebrated Christmas in UT on the 19th which also happens to be Abigale's Birthday!  It was quite fun and I am glad we did it there so we didn't have to lug all the stuff back and forth on our vacation!  The kids really enjoyed themselves...as you can see!

In Arizona we got our stockings from Santa and a few gifts from Grammie and Papa and a gift for each of the kids from their Great Grammie and Great Papa which we weren't expecting! 

I however came down with a fever and sore throat and on Christmas Eve day I was running a fever of 102.3...I took some Tylenol and went to our annual Nielson Christmas Eve party and was avoided by everyone like the plague...haha.  Later that night my fever jumped to 104.6.  Needless to say I called my midwife cause I was concerned about what my high fever could mean and they told me to go to the ER!  I was not really looking forward to doing that on Christmas Eve so I took more meds, some antibiotics and got a blessing from my husband, dad and bil Chad.  Turns out after a few days of antibiotics the fever died down and so did the sore throat, so I am thinking I got strep!  The holiday hasn't been too eventful for me but that's okay!!  I hope everyone else's Christmas went off without a hitch!

Abigale turns 5!!

My sweetheart Abigale is 5!  I can't believe it!!  For her (early) birthday this year we took a few friends to the bowling alley and had a party!  The girls really enjoyed it and so did we!

Gingerbread Kids...

Abigale had the great joy of being in Gingerbread Kids this holiday season!  She did so well and we are so proud of her!  Here are a few photos of one of their performances...plus a video at the end of Abby during her solo!!

WIND STORM

We had a huge windstorm in Centerville!  Wind levels up to 100+ mph...it was quite crazy!!  Here is the damage from our house, we lost three trees and the screen door on the front door is gone!
