Later that Day, around 4:00 PM we headed out on our way to Utah. To avoid weather and bad roads we drove a longer way down through Reno and over across Nevada. It really wasn’t too bad and we got there about 6:00 AM. We had tiny bit of sleep before our family breakfast that next morning at 8:00 AM! Although we were tired, especially Duck, it was a really fun morning. The whole family was there and then we were able to all be there for the blessing of my brothers first baby, Jacob. It was a really fun morning and we were happy we were able to make it at that time.
I think she was happy about her gift from Santa!
Kyson as well couldn't leave the track. It was a little hard for him to figure out to not let them go as fast as they could so they would stay ON the tracks, but I think he finally got the hang of it. Later the missionaries were over and they had fun with it as well!
Jayden loves cars and I have to say I think that was his favorite gift....his 'Cars' cars.
Maliyah being the big helper!
Our Family exchanges names, like lots of families do, but one thing we do a little different is that our gifts have to be hand made. Our money limit used to be $5.00 (but not when we were kids, just as we got older the gifts started to be a little more elaborate and expensive!) but this year went up to $5-10. That was nice because it allowed us a little bit more fun with the projects. Mine was still waiting for me in Utah, but my Dad had Duck and made him this tool peg board and sent along the pegs as well for to hold his tools.
