This may be the last Christmas post!

This is the cutest baby you will ever see! My beautiful niece Zoe.



Strange facination for my dad's watch.

The cutest brother in the world.












The cutest dad and brother-in-law ever!















The cutest sister and mom.....and Diana ever!





Zoe was so funny she loved sucking on the table for like 30 min. It was really funny because you could see her reflection on the table. It really kept her busy.







Rachel got a new camera for Christmas and so we took our family pictures in the freezing snow.










How can a ball of chub be so adorable and make me so happy.








It was so cool when we got to the grove, there was a dear sitting right next to the trees. We were able to walk so close to it. It kept on just looking at us. It was a little bit creepy, but also made me happy because in my mind I was pretending it was a reindeer.




















Mmmmmm...chunky little baby in fuzzy PJ's.




















Other niece and Nephews. Will, Stryder, and Janie.

Wow that barn must be really interesting.





Chris and Lindsay playing "tap tap" on the ipod.











Betsy (sister-in-law) and her daughter Janie. I couldn't really get enough pics of cute Janie. She has grown up so much since the last time we saw her.















Will and Arie (i apologize that I don't know how to spell my own families names)













































































































I never thought I would be a fake Christmas tree kind of person, but moving to San Francisco in a tiny apartment where real trees are expensive I did become one. When we were home for the holiday there was an amazing sale at Target and we got a cute little fake tree.















Dad put up Christmas lights on our house.















Jesse played at Borders with a Jazz band. He is so good!
Mmmmm.....Christmas tamalies





My little Zoe cow.

Christmas at Home

Going home for Christmas was so great. It was so fun to be around our families again. We played so many card games. This is us playing Scum...one of our family favorites that we always end up playing forever!


This was the scum cap..

King(dad), Queen(Even), Princess (Diana)


My friend Nicole stopped by.
Our traditional Christmas bubbly.
Dad was so happy about being king for so long.
I think Grandma and Grandpa Turley gave us these English party poppers and we thought there was going to be a huge explosion and just a couple of whistles fell out. It was quite a let down...we had fun being annoying and whistling and stuff.


My new Christmas slippers that Jonaclause gave me.
I love snuggling with my mommy.
We watched It's a Wonderful Life. My Brother-in-law Josh was way too into his new Christmas book to watch though.
Mom, Dad, and Even(my cousin) Dad always cries during this movie. And I'm not talking about just a couple of tears....he bawls!!! It is so cute. I always cry a little also.
Zoe is so beautiful! It was so fun gettting to see and play with her.
mmmmmm.....palmagranits....
I can't believe how high the snow in my parent's back yard gets! I love playing in it!

It was so wierd comming from San Francisco with no snow to Utah with all this!
Zoe got a jumping thing for Christmas...I kind of wish I had one of those.
It was so funny to watch Zoe open presents and eat the paper. I don't get why she loves eating paper so much, but she was way into it!
Mmmmmmmm...box...
The apron I made for my sister Rachel.
Mom and Ginger.

We totally forgot to bring our sockings so we used regual socks and stretched them to the max!
