Nat came home Thursday night to suprise David for his birthday weekend. He was very surprised to see her! On Saturday, we went skiing at Dodge Ridge. It’s been over 2 years since we’ve gone skiing. At first, David was hesitant about going. He was worried his body couldn’t take it anymore. But in the end, he had fun skiing with the kids. And the kids had a lot of fun too.

We got back home in time to freshen up, change clothes, and go to dinner to celebrate David’s birthday

We headed to LA a few days before Christmas and stayed a few days after. It was a quieter Christmas this year with several family members traveling out of the country. We still enjoyed spending time with family that was around.

Grandma and Grandpa, and Auntie Diana and family were in Vietnam during Christmas so we had dinner at a restaurant this year. It was nice to do something different and have a nice dinner out.

After dinner, we headed back to Uncle Tommy’s house to open presents!

The kids decorated ginger bread houses and cookies

Tyler got this “my size” cat. He loves it.
