A Troll Holly- Day

Every year Wrightwood puts on a Holiday Festival. Kids can make ornaments and decorate their own sugar cookies...




Apparantly Christian was too cool to make me an ornament but he did give me bunny ears!





There was glitter everywhere!!!!!





When it came to making cookies everyone decorated one. Of course C wouldn't have his picture taken doing that. Big Dork!











We had fun walking around town, going into the shops and spending time together...










Here they are making a Reindeer ornament... My tree is gonna be full this year!




We got to take a carriage ride around the block...





Waiting for some Yummy Pizza...









Just add these to their Christmas lists! Like they weren't long enough already.




and a trip to the mountains wouldn't be a trip without some hot chocolate made with marshmellows whip cream and sprinkles!!!




and they even got to play in a little left over snow.



It was a great day for "Just the Five of us"


Puerto Rico

Double cheers to getting to Puerto Rico after just two flights... I met Erin in SLC and we flew to Atlanta, Shannon went from LAX to JFK and we all met in PR! Woooo hoooo



Medallia: The Beer of PR. Kinda like coors light.






We crashed a cabana party...


From Snow to warm sunny beaches... It's time to vacation!





We started our adventure on Isla Verde, checking into our hotel and then going out to explore





didnt' take long to rush back to the hotel put on our bathing suits and head to the beach right across the street...




Me and Rubi Roo Soaking up the sun...







Water was perfect!




Going to the casino our first night and relaxing outside










Not a late night cause we were hiking the rain forest early in the morning! Called "El Yunque" and nominated as one of the new seven wonders of the world.




The Tower, whose name I forgot.




The View from the top overlooked alllll of PR




Don't mind if I do.




Hiking down the paved path to the waterfall.




Simply amazing





I was the first one in! Water was cold and the fall kept pushing me forward.








Driving back saw some kiosks on the side of the road that hid Luquillo beach



Most Beautiful beach ever. Guys were climbing the tree to get coconunts











and for only $2 dollars a pop they chopped them up for us right there and we had fresh coconut water for our afternoon on the beach.




After a few hours baking in the sun we set out for the bacardi distillery but got lost and ended up at the forts. This one is El Castillo de San Cristobal



San Juan Views



Inside the Castle



A protection for the city against pirates





















Dinner and Old San Juan for some night time fun...




Old san Juan in the morning after a fun night that included Don Q PR Rum and some dancing







Mallorca probably the best thing I ate here and let me tell ya there was a lot of bomb ass food!











Didn't want to go home but so excited for our next trip!
