Out with the Old Year and in with the New

Last December (2014) I didn't take any pictures!
Well this year I mended my ways.
We got a tree. 
It was raining, I'm guessing that is why
 the girls both have closed eyes?
We attended the ward Christmas breakfast.
Where they had a cute photo booth.
Maya, Jadyn, Mark
The Cougar and the Ute
We needed a picture of everyone for a family party
so at Klejner Night - we took one of Aunt Perky.
Mark cooking the Klejner.
Gabe, Perky, Linda and I rolling/tying the Klejner.
Mark's company moved into the Ford Building in downtown SLC.
This is his new space!
We had a fun Wightman family party.

We changed up our decorations this year

Christmas morning. Before the kids came down!
CW and her gifts
PW and her gifts
Paige and her new blanket.
It snowed.
We got hair cuts! We love our Jeaneal!
We had the condo for New Year's Eve
so we headed for St. George!
We went to the gym
Where the girls showed me
Double Downward Dog.
Such talent!
Then the girls showed me how to find my
2015 best nine on Instagram.
It's all about family for me!
We had such fun in St. George with
Ben and Glenn
New Year's Eve dinner at The Pizza Factory.
Taken with my new selfie stick that I got for Christmas,
sadly this was the last photo we used it for before it's untimely death.
We spent the day with Lynsey and Brooklyn.
This is me practicing to be a grandma!
We found Santa at a St. George street fair.
And had dinner at George's Corner.
It is rare that we try any new restaurants in St. George
but we did this time.
We worked all week on a puzzle - that was very hard!
We had breakfast with Jocelyn and Avery and their family.
Avery, Jocelyn, Sophie
with Brooklyn too
And one more with Mark, Josh and Lynsey
My little beauties.
Jumping for joy.
Courtney and Ben
Paige and Ben
There is beauty all around!
We love Snow Canyon!
We enjoyed a dinner at Benja Thai with Jennifer and Ace.

The all blacks!
That fire truck is going so fast!
The Mod Squad at Urban Renwal.
We even visited the Dinosaur Museum which
is about a mile from our condo and we had never been.
It was kinda fun!
And finally we finished the puzzle!
Thank you Eric Dowdle - that was the hardest thing ever!

Then we came home to start real life in 2016!
