Sara's schedule for the break:
December 22-Sea World!! I love dolphins!! They are so fun to watch and I think they're so cute! :) I even got to feed a few! I loved it!!
This was pre- dolphin/whale show... Notice how we're already wearing ponchos... it was raining, so the kids (and me) figured hey, we're already wet, why not sit in the soak zone?? Haha! We were drenched! It was so much fun... till the sun went down! Then it was a little cold!
And this was from the parents' angle... see the people with the umbrellas down in the front? We were the people in front of those people! Like I said, we were drenched!
I wish you could see this picture better! But that's me... petting a sting ray! 
Followed by 4 1/2 hours of driving north to head to Sacramento-ish to visit family! We stayed in Lost City, California and the motel was disgusting! But it was late and we were exhausted so we stayed there anyway! It was only for a few hours anyway...December 24- Merry Christmas Eve!! We woke up and drove 4 1/2 more hours to my grandparents new house! It's so cute and we had fun hanging out with them for a while. Then my aunt, uncle, and cousins came over and we ate dinner and played games. It was a blast! I hadn't seen my cousins in forever! Then, at like 9:00 pm, my mom and I went Christmas shopping at Walgreens! Nothing like some last minute Christmas shopping!
December 25- Merry Christmas!! Santa found us in California! We went through our stockings and found lots of fun stuff then went to church and then went over to my 2nd cousin, twice removed's house... only joking! She's just our second cousin! We had a big party with a bunch of the family! It was great! Some of them I hadn't seen since I was really little! My sister even had to be re-introduced to a bunch of them! Crazy stuff! I guess some of them should come visit more often! haha! Sadly, this was the best picture of all of us taken on my camera. Get a bunch of kids together and try to get a good picture... probably not! You can't even see Lindsey's face! That's ok though! We all had lots of fun hanging out and catching up on the last 5 years of our lives! 
The four 1st cousins... and yep! That's all of them on my mom's side! :)
December 26- Hang out with the fam all day! :)
December 27- Drive 10 hours back to Utah... (did anyone count how many hours in the car that was??)
December 28- Aaron's homecoming.... CRAZY! It's amazing how fast time flies when you're not waiting for someone... Welcome home Aaron!!
December 29- Work a million hours! Ok, maybe not a million, but it sure seemed like it! We were crazy busy! I guess that's a good thing though! And, luckily, I have the rest of the week off to recover from the crazy day!
Well, that's Winter break so far... But with 2 more weeks left, I'm sure there will be a lot more fun adventures to blog about! And, just a thought, maybe I should blog more often so that my posts aren't so long that no one reads them anyway! I can handle it though! This is more for me than for anyone else!! :)

Wow, you have been busy (as usual!) I am jealous that you got to go to California. I love Sea World. Someday I WILL go there and swim with the dolphins.
I'm glad you had lots of fun for Christmas. You deserve a nice break. And guess what? In just two days, you can say that "someone" comes home "THIS YEAR!"
I'm glad you like your nick name :) I'm so incredibly jealous you got to go to the Poinsettia Bowl! That would have been amazing. I think Boise was probably distracted by their uniforms. Every time they looked down "what the heck? . . ." I'm glad you had fun in Cali. Happy New Year!!!
I did read all you wrote...I always do. But then you write about life in the cutest way. I will try doing better on my blog.
Yay Sara! As always you are having way too much fun! I was glad to see you on Sunday...sorry I didn't really get to talk to you though! Hopefully we will see you again soon though! Enjoy the rest of your time off from school!
