The last two months of the year flew by so fast, but were filled with a few trips to celebrate the holidays. For Thanksgiving, we drove mom's new Honda Accord to Elko, NV to spend it with family. It was also Finn's first car trip! Then for Christmas, Scotlyn came home for about a month and we took a family trip to Salt Lake City and stayed at Little America. We went to a Jazz game, the Living Planet Aquarium, and Thanksgiving Point (Luminaria) and saw the Christmas light show. It was a wonderful 3 days of being together as a family. Karsen, Scotlyn's boyfriend, also went.
Matt had to work Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, but we still made the best of it. The boys and I had a nice fancy pasta dinner and watched Christmas movies. On 12/27, we flew to AZ for the week to enjoy some sun. However, it was cold and rained. We still had a great time racing go karts, going to the Fiesta Bowl, visiting a winery and distillery, and swimming every day. Michele and Russell rented a really nice Air BnB for us to all stay in. It was the perfect end to a wonderful year!!!
