The Scoop in December (and Christmas)

Playing the piano all together-aww

Tayevion loves scouts!

At the beginning of December we took our annual trip to Boston and New York.

This year we got to be there to help with Ellie's birthday party.

The theme was poop emoji, haha!

Then it was off to New York City!

But first-the kids love to play at the Logan Airport play area.

My parents came with us (yay!)

This time we took the Long Island Railroad into the city.

It was empty, clean and much faster.

Here we are at Macy's in Herald Square

I cannot believe I let her bring Pumpkin on this trip

Such a fun tradition

This year we switched days with the Browns

Cute Christmas PJ's

Celebrating Gracie's birthday at Pizza Pie Cafe

We decided to be adventurous and go see Wendy in CA in between Christmas and New Years.

The warm California sun felt so good compared to the cold in Utah.

Getting on the connecting flight to Sacramento

We spent such a fun few days with the Kissi's celebrating Koby's birthday and just hanging out.

They took us to see some fun Christmas lights.

But in the end we got stuck there a lot longer than planned and we missed dad!

Last day-at a park by the Golden Gate Bridge

I'm so grateful to still have such a close relationship to my childhood friend Wendy!

She even gave me a whole new hairstyle while we were there.
