We've had a great January. Most of it has been pretty normal, just the regular day to day life (which is flying by so fast) but one highlight has been the visitors we have gotten this month. First came my mission companion. We served together for 4 1/2 months, and she was one of the most amazing and fun people I've ever met. She was in Utah for their family's Christmas Break and so she, her husband and two kids stopped by for a couple of hours. Ella loved the friends, and we enjoyed getting caught up. Come back soon!
Then we had Elizabeth and my mom come in for a way too short 48 hour visit! I am so sad that for some odd reason the camera never came out that weekend. We had a great time though with lots of games, food, and highlighting BYU for Bess. Then last Friday my dad came in town for a quick visit as well. He actually came in to give an amazing lecture to the Accounting students. We got to steal him for a great dinner and fun visit. Here's Ella with grandpa.
This is a tribute to our lifesaver as of late. Ella seems to not know how to fall asleep in her crib anymore. However, she does know how to play in it for hours on end, and stand up and scream in it. Three cheers for the swing!
Here's a family shot of us at a BYU men's Volleyball game. We love the borrowed All Sport's Passes that give us a free and fun date :)
This is Ella's new coat. She can't seem to put her arms down at her sides, but she doesn't seem to mind too much.
Last but not least here's a video for grandma's and aunts and uncles who would like a little sneak peak of their Ella from time to time!
