This year we went to Arizona for Christmas! I hadn't been home in 3 years! I was so excited to see everyone! Unfortunately, Kaci caught a little bug the day before Christmas Eve and it lasted until the day after Christas (that's 4 days). This little bug was horrific! She threw up non stop, refused to eat, and rarely slept. She continued to smile in between throwing up, but she was really quite miserable. Then my lil sister, Aunt Krysie to Kaci (uncle trystal or baby trystal to our neice lilian) caught the bug from Kaci, I then caught it, Brad caught a horrible cold that is still lingering with a nasty cough. My older sister Kim, Uncle Kevin, Granny, and cousin Brooke also all caught the little bug. All in all, we had a pretty puke-e christmas.

BUT!! We did have a lot of fun despite it all.
We...
played WII sports (so fun, you can be warm inside and still break a sweat playing fun sports like tennis, boxing, bowling, baseball,and golf)
hiked thumb butte
played pounce
watched high school musical and memorized all the songs and the dances(kaci is really good at the dances)
got lots of cool presents (thanks again family! you truly spoil us)
went to a hockey game
saw the biggest bonfire of life and watched fireworks
went sledding in flagstaff
flew a kite
went for a stroll (lots of those, even in freezing weather Kaci prefers the outdoors)
ate at Chino Bandido's with my friends Kim and Victoria
spent time with family (the real highlight of any trip)
FINALLY visited my grandpa nulliner's grave
ate TONS of food (including my two favorite holiday treats: popcorn from a tin and summer sausage with ritz crackers...mmmmm!)
