We began and ended this month with a birthday.

Happy #44 to Kimberly on the 2nd.

Happy #39 to Amber on the 30th.

The days before Christmas were filled with...

The  Annual NJM Cheese Party

Dances for Sean and Tyler

The annual Special Needs Nativity Pageant

Finn was a great camel pusher!

A visit to Rexburg for Alex and Hayley's graduations...

Our Exercise Physiology graduate!

Our Accounting graduate!

Professor Dave was one of the presenters - he read Alex's name.

We even got a special bonus - bumping into our friends from Portugal - Manuel and Helena Silva.

This month wasn't all fun and games...

Oliver got some teeth pulled.

Grandma had some cancers removed.

Grandpa got bronchitis.

But...back to the good stuff - 

Light the World

The NJMs and KJLs 'lit the world' with their own 'day of giving'.

Hanging out 

Hockey Games

Visiting Santa and other 'Iceberg' festivities

Golfing in Texas

(It does sometimes get cold in Texas)

Christmas Eve dinner in Morgan.

(The belated Christmas with Alex, Amanda, and Ainsley.)

The 'blurrrrrr' between Christmas and New Years was filled with...

The DARs in Morgan.

Baptisms at the Ogden Temple for Lincoln and Brielle.

Bowling

Seth asked and Ainsley said YES!

An awesome conclusion to 2023!!

Buc-ee even got in on the celebration!

We rang in the New Year

YAY

We made it through another 365 days on earth.

So long 2023.

Some days we celebrated.

Some days we just muddled through.

But, we did it.

Welcome 2024.

I can't wait to see what you have in store!

(Best of luck with that!)
