Christmas travels with the family!

After spending almost a week and a half with Bre and her family I met my parents and brother in Las Vegas. After all of us met up (my parents, bro and then I were on 3 separate flights) we started our drive up to Oakley, Idaho. We stopped in Salt Lake City on the way to look at the beautiful light display at temple square!We stayed the night in Ogden then drove up to Oakley where we spend Christmas with the Bedke's. There was my sister Jacquie, her husband Ryan and Ryan's family! It is definitely rare that both sets of family spend Christmas together! It was a great time and I really appreciate the Bedke's taking care of us for the three days we were there! Some of the Bedkes!

My family...well besides Jacq and Ry

Then we headed off to Southern California! We drove the entire way on Saturday and left on Wednesday. The weather was amazing while we were there! It was either in the 60s or 70s everyday! We stayed in a hotel in Corona! It was a nice hotel actually and had a great breakfast! Here is what we did each day.

Sunday: Hollywood


Venice Beach/Santa Monica Pier

Monday: Huntington Beach



Tuesday: San Diego Zoo


Then we left California for Las Vegas! First we stopped at Hoover Dam! It was amazing!


That was definitely an interesting experience for me! I had never been to Vegas bad had heard it was called "sin city". Being there on New Years Eve made it sin city times 100! It was crazy! It was definitely an eye opener and made me appreciate the life I live! I am so grateful for the way I was raise and the standards I have been taught!! Here are pictures from New Years eve and New Years day in Vegas!


Now I am back in lovely Rexburg, Idaho frrrrrreezing!! It was a great Christmas break though and I am grateful I could share it with my friends and family!!!
