our holiday

Our time in Nevada was wonderful- filled with all sorts of activities, time with family, ballet, eating, loving, playing, celebrating and more!

We got to see my parent's Nutcracker Ballet

nap with grandpa

we had hoped for warmer weather, but were greeted by a winter wonderland

projects and activities kept us good and busy

quality time with cousins was grand!

beautiful dresses for all these beautiful girls- all made by grandma Roxann!

One of our last days in Nevada was my brother Jay's birthday. He died three years ago, and would have turned 16 this year. Each year on his birthday we write him notes, tie them to balloons, and send them heavenward. Ezra, who still remembers Jay, wrote him a lovely note and drew a picture of himself and Jay playing soccer. It was a lovely time together- remembering our brother, and thinking of how wonderful it will be to see him again one day.


Such a lovely holiday! We loved spending Christmas with our wonderful family and felt so loved and blessed.
