December

Christmas celebrations!  Christian's orchestra concert and Amber sang at the mall.  We also went to the nursing home and played chimes and made gingerbread houses.  Our light the world project was donating stocking with beanies and gloves to the youth detention center.  Wonderful time of the year!

 Christmas with the Thompsons

Christmas dinner at our home on Christmas Eve.  We had shrimp, prime rib, potatoes and brussel sprouts with chocolate mousse for dessert.  We had our devotional and then opened up crackers.  Grandma and Grandpa Reece joined us.  It was a great evening.

AND...MEXICO

 The house was nice and big enough the could all relax in the evenings.

 Fishing trip!

 Tide pools!

 Shopping and dining

November

 Brittany's getting married!  Bachelorette party the night before.  We went to Los Hermanos and then ComedySportz.

 I love my primary class.  The boys are hilarious and I will miss them but happy get a new one!

 Christian's first date with me!  Scott Bell planned a group date for the next day so we hurried his date with me.  He was actually quite able.  He had good conversation skills and manners and I was a lot less worried.

 Soran the lunch worker

 Alyssa home for Thanksgiving

NVP Christmas party at the Block.  It was really good and we got a big fat bonus.

October

 CORNBELLYS--I love this place.  It was pouring when we got there but it cleared up and was pretty nice.  Foosball, corn maze, hay ride and this year we got turkey legs for everyone for finishing the Book of Mormon.  It was a little too much meat, but it was yummy!

 Scott and I at Thriller.  We almost have it memorized.  Such great show.

Thompson family reunion.  We went to the Crystal Hot Springs and it was perfect!  There were 3 different pools at different temperatures and a few hot tubs.  We laid around in the warm water all day.

 Daddy's FHE--practicing money

Halloween!  Amber and I as good cop, bad cop, Alivia's princess face and a unicorn jammy girl.

Amber was a pirate but I didn't get a pic.
