Christmas in Utah- Days 4 & 5

Day 4- On Monday, I got together with all my friends from high school (minus Taci, we missed you!) for lunch and a little gift exchange.  It's always great to see all these girls again and catch up on each others lives.


Day 5- Tuesday was Jessica's family bridal shower.  Her colors for her wedding are red and turquoise and the theme of the shower was "Something Blue" so she wore this awesome blue wig and everyone was supposed to wear blue and all the food and decorations were blue.  It was so cute!!




I love the bottom right picture below- classic Jessica face and Brad's head looks like it's floating!



I made the cake for the shower and even though it was far from perfect, I was pretty happy with how it turned out.



Later that night, we went to my Uncle Gary's for a sleigh ride, dinner, games and to visit with my cousin Haley who's visiting from DC.

After dinner, Me, Brody, Brad, Jess and cousin Andy had fun playing up in their "kiddie" room.  There was a ramp down the middle of the room, so we came up with some creative ways of how to slide down.  Oh and then Andy found a creepy doll and we took a creepy picture of him with it.

After that, my family had a hilarious time taking a few Awkward Family Photo's.  We were laughing pretty hard when we looked at all these later.


And then a normal one, or at least we hope this one is normal.  We were in kind of a weird mood after taking all those above.

Anyway, it was a busy but very fun and entertaining day!!

Man those awkward pictures are the best! I love how we always have fun together no matter what. Kathryn's baby is big, and cute! I have loved having you guys here and i'll be sad when you leave (well, more like when you're not here when I get home. Why do I always miss seeing you guys leave?)

Is the friend with the baby Kathryn?????? I stared at the pic of you and your high school friends forever trying to figure out why the girl with the baby looked familiar and then I had a flashback to club volleyball and thought "oh my! I think that's kathryn!!!"
Neat. If I'm wrong and it's not kathryn, I feel weird.

The shower looks awesome and that cake is perfect! You did a ton of stuff in Utah and I'm glad you were there for all of the wedding festivities.
