The day after Christmas we drove to Arizona to surprise my parents, not just my family, but Ellen and her family, and Raelyn and her family. We were so excited to see eachother again and to see the shock on our parents faces. We met up at Papa Johns pizza where we picked up dinner and then headed all over to mom and dads. We rang the doorbell but nobody came, so we waited and tried again, we peaked through the garage window and saw that their car was home, so Jeff banged super hard on the door, and on came the porch light and grandma to the door and we all yelled MERRY CHRISTMAS SURPRISE!! She thought we were carolers so didnt really get excited and then as we started to come in the house she was like I recognize some of you, it was really funny. We had a great time. We went over to Jeff's parents one day and picked oranges and grapefruit, brought back a lot of memories and was fun to let our kids do what we did as kids every year. We also went to the Mesa temple and saw the lights, was beautiful. We hiked Sqaw Peak, had family pictures taken, the cousins played lots of games together, we had a great time and then ended it with celebrating the New Year and Raeyn's Birthday.
