We drove up to Huntington to catch a lil Christmas day with the Pearson's! As far as the drive goes(well and the stay) I was just so happy the roads were dry and the skies were clear!
Most people won't think that this is that stunning..but I have more appreciation for these power plants (more of why on a dif post) But we were driving past Hunter Power plant and I snapped this with my cell phone...I thought it was a pretty dang cool picture!
Loved all the lighting-YOU NEVER see a sky like this in Hawaii... Theres always a cloud or two or a thousand in our skies
While we were on I-70 going EAST towards Huntington, Chandler spotted a NICE size elk on the opposite side of the freeway (west bound side of the freeway) and what does Chan do? Flips the car around drives it thru the median- pretty sure there was no dirt pathway so my lil car went thru all the weeds...thats a hunter for ya who has been on a green deserted rock for too long ;) so now we are driving WEST back towards Salina.... we sat and watched it for a good couple minutes. Then Im pretty sure Chandler flipped another Uey to go back wherever he wanted again between the two freeways. It was all good tho.
AND we arrive to a lovely, welcoming, warm, cozy, and family everywhere home! It was so great to walk in and hug everyone! Kaylene and Dennis opened up their home and had everyone over for a YUMMY Christmas dinner!
Cousins- Kelly and Aric and Morgan and Tyler...Finally Tyler proposed to Mo after 7-8 years or something like that! We are so super stoked to have her be in our family!!!!
Kelly and Meags
Uncle Gary, Ashley and Chan
Grandma Be a trying on all her new jewelry
We had a wonderful gift exchange..I would say everyone did very well! Mo had me and I got some cute new work out clothes
Gary had Chan and he got some clothes
Chandler had Kaye
and I had Tyler!
And then of course Grandma Bea is always soo sweet in spoiled each and everyone of us making us feel so loved and special. Thank you so much Grandma! We really appreciate you!
After the cousins left we all got in our comfy new PJs(thanks to Gerie!) and did gifts!
WE GOT SPOILED
One of my favorite gifts that Dennis and Kaylene did so well on was they got us a Logitech keyboard remote! I have been wanting a google TV! YAY! I play on it too much! Now I can surf the net from my couch on my tv!
Cute Meagy playing with my Camera!
I got lots n lots n lots of cute clothes! Seriously...Hawaii might have one of the countries largest malls that I live a few blocks away from but Utah always seems to have cuter clothes. Thanks Kaylene and Meag for helping make me look stylish!
Dennis surprised Kaylene with flights to Hawaii! Thats our Christmas gift too! We get to spend more time with them! And he surprised her with ticket to see Neil Diamond in concert....yes in Honolulu!
Chan got a new watch! (another one yes!)
I had been working months n months or what felt like months on this gift...it was not easy doing it long distance with my photographer either.. but Dennis and Kaylene don't have any photos from our wedding. So I decided to make a collage of the day. It didn't turn out exactly how I wanted for the pretty penny but oh well I was happy with it! And so was Dennis and Kaylene! They were pretty surprised..maybe even a lil tear which made me happy! I ordered a nice frame for it too!
Dennis and Kaylene take such good care of us and give, give, give. I had so much new stuff I didn't know what to do with and felt overwhelmed. But Thank YOU all so much you made our Christmas amazing it couldn't have been any better!
A lil video of the Elk we saw ..this is exciting for us when we come home to see one...now Chandler gets to oooee and awwww over the whales here which is great too! The whales here are like elk to Uthans..But pretty sure you see more whales? I don't know give or take a lil...just look out to the ocean and you see one! Its pretty sweet!
