The day after Christmas we took a quick trip over to Arizona to visit Matt's Brother Dave and his family. Matt's parents were also there so it was fun to see them too! We did alot of fun things in just the few days we were there. We felt very lucky to spend time with them because they always make it so fun! We didn't take very many great pictures but here are a few that reflect some of the things we did.
Dave and Wendy have a really fun house with lots of fun toys. My kids were so happy and played so well the whole time. Eliza has a cousin her same age named ashley. They played house, dolls, pet shop, my little ponies, dress ups and so much more. They are a cute pair whenever they get together.
The first day we got there was Josh's birthday. He chose to go to a Fun center called Amazing Jakes. It was so much fun for the whole family. They had an All you can eat buffet that had good food, mini golf, arcade, rides, and a rock wall. Matt and I had a fun time trying to make it to the top and also playing with the kids.
For Eliza's birthday Wendy had sent her this dress and got Ashley a matching one. They also had neckalaces and headbands too! They looked adorable!
Luckily this year we had Dave and Wendy's family for the gift exchange and they had us. It made it nice to be able to exchange gifts and be together. We felt very spoiled once again by ALL that they gave us. Wendy is a really thoughtful gift giver! Not only for christmas but for birthdays too! While we were there we also went shopping, ate at Joes BBQ, Saw the Temple lights and was able to be there while Josh received the priesthood. We had a great trip even though it was short, and were so happy we decided to go.

Sounds like so much fun,wish we could have been down there at the same time. Joes BBQ I am so jealous that is one of my most favorite places!
I cannot believe how long your hair is....LOVE the gold dresses! So fitting and sparkly for little miss Eliza!
It's ok you didn't take many pics-we got to see a couple thousand of dads. All in which you looked absolutely stunning, of course.
We love your family.
so fun. Thanks for your cousin's site. I've actually looked at it before...she does awesome work! I didn't realize she was your cousin though, small world. I also just realized that you guys know the Birch's. JD was Bryant's roommate at Ricks. Funny.
Sounds like you had a fun time!
It was so much fun to have you guys! We loved every minute and WE were the ones who were spoiled by your most thoughtful gifts! You are so sweet and I agree with Jolyn - you look like one HOT mama in the pics! Love you! Thank you for coming, thank you for all of the wonderful gifts too. Hope we can play together again soon!
Looks like you guys had a great holiday season. How much longer in school? Do you think you will come to Boise to visit at all? We do really like it here. The weather has not been the greatest but that is true of most places this year. We are still trying to make friends. Our ward had like 700 plus people so it is just really chaotic. We have good neighbors but they are mostly old. Wish you guys still lived here.We keep trying to recruit people to move here. Hope all is well. Give us a ring sometime. 208-855-0351
