my 2 favorite times of year. when i see my cousins in the summer, and when i see my cousins in the winter. i was lucky enough to see them for a whole month this summer! they were down here for 2 weeks {see HERE and HERE} and we were up in Seattle for 2 weeks {see HERE, HERE and HERE} + Briana and Mackenzie visited Lex, Mia, and i in November! {see HERE} wow i just love them.
anywayyysss, this was quite the great Christmas break with them. they decided to fly this time, so we had 2 more days with them than we usually do! they arrived at 2 on Monday the 26 {the day after Christmas} we basically partied all day. everyday. we went shopping, eating out, gym time, watching movies, going to do baptisms at the temple, attend family parties, more movies, more eating out, and MORE.
