6th annual Friends Christmas Party

Every Christmas since high school Megan Morton has hosted the famous friends Christmas party. As we're getting older people seem to get tired earlier and the group gets larger with spouses. We always have a great time eating, chatting, and catching up! We plan on having this party forever! Thanks Megan! We had lots of fun!

A Christmas Miracle!!

This Christmas was a lot of fun, we went to Hawaii for our gift to each other so we enjoyed hanging out with family for the holidays this year. We had a delicious dinner at Scott's dads on Christmas Eve. Afterwards we headed to Cass' families to talk to Sister Buehner! Cass' sister is serving a mission in Latvia. She has been out 6 months. We had a big breakfast at Scott's moms Christmas Day. Then we hung out with Cass' family the rest of the day. We went to the movies and saw a great flick. Then we went home and played games, as the time passed none of us noticed how much it had snowed. We got up from playing games and busted out the snowmobiles in the drive way. We drove down to the Sinclair to put gas in them and a cop spotted us-- apparently no driving snowmobiles on the roads! What a Christmas miracle!

Hawaii

After aceing my last final at the U, we hopped onto a plane bound for Hawaii. What better way to finish school than that! We spent a fabulous week in Hawaii and made in home just in time for Christmas. This trip was sort of a three in one for us: I just finished school, it was our 3 year anniversary, and my older brother Sam had his wedding there. We had a blast just being beach bums for a week and hanging out with family for a few days. It was fun getting to know Rei's family. They didn't speak english, but we still felt like we knew them by the end of the trip. We were invited to Taiwan several times (we'll have to take them up on that!) One of our favorite things is going somewhere warm during the winter!
