Utah Christmas

I think our kids are the luckiest kids in the world. Not only did they get to go to Ireland and France this fall, and Maui for Christmas, but they also got totally spoiled at Gram and Grandpa's house in the middle of all that! We returned to the USA on Tuesday the 13th, unpacked and repacked until Friday the 16th, and drove to Central Utah for a Richfield Christmas with our beloved Gram and Grandpa Larsen. And Bella. And Scotty. And McKenzie. And the latest addition, Gram's new little miniature schnauzer named Violet/Liesl (after Spencer's cute little friend in Ireland).
Dogs dogs everywhere -we love it! Bella (our black lab) was delighted to see us... or maybe she just liked the bone we bought her but at least she seemed pleased to have us back. She was in the lap of doggy luxury at Gram's house -thanks Gram and Grandpa for taking such good care of her!!!
"Christmas morning" at G&G's. (sorry, I can't figure out how to rotate the picture - just tilt your head.)
Some of our favorite things: riding the four wheelers with Grandpa and cuddling with Gram (while fitting in our year's worth of Sponge Bob in one go).

Bella all decked out.
Welcome to the family, little Liesl/Violet! She is so cute... and feisty! Although totaling about two pounds, she was bossing Bella and Scotty around with quite the attitude. Gram loves her new little baby!
What's Christmas without a new lego set? And a Pizza Hut/movie date with G&G? (we saw Arthur Christmas this time around). We had the best time - thanks Gram and Grandpa!
