Christmas...even though it doesn't look it

First off...this was one pic I got from Christmas Vacay that looks like Christmas.  Only it's actually with my mom's camera, she emailed it to me.  I was laughing so hard because of Tae in this pic.  None of us had any idea she was pulling that FACE.   

I was so HORRIBLE this year about taking photos of Christmas. I didn't take ONE. Not one, not Christmas eve, Christmas day OR New Years. I should be fired. But I did take a bunch in Mexico. We went to Flagstaff to celebrate Christmas then headed to Rocky Point 2 days later for 4 days. It was absolute HEAVEN. It was so nice to let the kids play outside again. We stayed right on the beach with Jaspers family so we had help galore with the kids. They're the only grandkids so far on his side, so they are completely mega spoiled with attention.

Uncle Ramsey and Mad.  He and Ry are the best uncles.  Wish you could have come Ry.  Waaah.  I love the old look of this one.

Jasper attempting my camera.  He needs some tutorials.  :)


Grandma Nene and Tae.  
Nene, Papa and kiddies.  How we wish we lived CLOSER!!

Besties....
The kids theme of this trip seemed to be their "sea shell shop".  Mad and T had their shops all set up.  They sold their shells for shells.  Sometimes you could buy 4 shells for 1 shell.  Hot buy!  Jazz and I had a grand time picking odd shells from the shore for them.  

Here's Nene purchasing some shells from T's shop.

I'm really no good at taking photos of this man....the man of my dreams.  The man who's so good to me and our children.  I love you....
This one cracks me up...






I love seeing my children play together.  Maybe that's why vacations are so important.  Building relationships which each other...lasting memories to hold onto forever.

This image warms my heart....

Some quote highlights from our trip:

Hearing Maddie say: "Obi-wan Kanobi please come to the office, Obi-wan Kanobi please come to the office."  

Kimi (my baby sis) singing requested songs to Taelyn.  Tae requesting "star wars" but not knowing what she was saying until she sang it.  It was hilarious, she totally belted out the Star Wars theme song.
