Bear Lake Ski Trip





We planned another adult only ski trip since the last one was so fun!
This time around it was us, Jacksons, Rudd's and Rieses.
We flew to Salt Lake, then hopped in rental cars to drive to Bear Lake for the weekend!
Not without going to Nelsens, first!


Cutest rental home.






The view right outside our bedroom window.


Jeanette brought her wax and found a great client.
Casey!
Her exact quote.
"Do you not know how to man-scape, casey?"
Haha.





Spent the day at Beaver Mountain skiing!




And nothing tastes better than a big pizza after a long day on the slopes!!


And nothing tops off a giant pizza like famous Bear Lake raspberry shakes!





The next day we rented snow mobiles and went tubing!




Cheers with our raspberry jam, butter and sherbet!
It's a raspberry dream at Bear Lake!

How many jackets do 2 people need for 4 days in the snow!




The time always flies way too quickly!



And kudos to Stephanie for getting all 8 children to church by 8am while we were gone!
She watched our kids, and they loved their vacation, too.





Sea Life Aquarium


We cashed in our Christmas present from Grandma and Grandpa.
A trip to the Sea Aquarium!

This was in the bathroom.
Pretty rad!












It was as wild and crazy time!

New Years!



Little did we know that this was the calm before the big storm.
We would have been protesting the new year if we had any indication what would 
happen in the next 2 months!
1 stupid words sums it up.
 Corona.


It was a party!
Homemade sushi!
 And waffles for the haters.

No Lindblom party is complete without a 
dance party and fireworks!













Solemn Christmas Day




We were all emotionally shot come Christmas Eve.
We did our traditional dinner at Cheesecake Factory.
It was Grammy, Jesse and Kristen, Stephanie and Justin, and us.
To liven up the mood, we went back to Grammy's house for some gambling, lol!

Everyone brought 5, 1 dollar bills per person.
It was the dice game right, left, center.
One lucky person at the end got the jackpot.
We were all pretty jealous of Kelsey!



Santa got some good cookies this year!
 

It is a miracle kids even had presents to wake up to that morning!
My sweet sis in law Abbey asked how she could help me during the passing of Papa.
The thought popped in my head, I need presents!
I gave her the task of ordering, and shopping for all the kids.
It was honest to goodness the BEST service anyone could have given me at the time.
She even wrapped them. 
I love her so much!


I think the biggest hit were these stick on nails for the girls.
They legit left these on ALL DAY!
It was the cutest thing.

And I will be super sad when they don't want to match anymore.




We gathered at the Evans' for breakfast and cousin presents.



Then went to spend the afternoon with the Goodman's. 
Sadly no pictures of that.

It was nice being surrounded by family all day.
