Wrap up of 2017

We had some good times in December. Zoo lights is always one of our favorites, and their Santa this year was AMAZING! It's also fun to be there in the dark because lots more of the animals move around. We got to hear all the lions roaring, it was pretty cool.

Of course, the most exciting thing for December was that Toby's parents came home from their mission! It's been so great to have them back!

 Max and Sam hung out a lot looking like this

Sam had his Christmas program

 We rode the train to the Treehouse museum where Max and Sam were in a play

Visiting with Santa is always a highlight.

 We went down to visit uncle Jake and Sam was in heaven watching him work!

 We tried out some rock climbing

Toby tried out Zach's virtual reality - it was hilarious!

And this is the only picture I have of our non-New Year's Eve party. When it's on a Sunday, it's kind of a bummer. So we did our usual stuff (swimming, food and games) on Saturday. I was proud of us this year - we all stayed up until 8:00! Someday when the little kids are older we'll be able to stay up later, until then - I don't mind getting a good night's sleep!
