I'm pretty sure my title does not make sense...however that is the perfect description of how November and December have been for me. I have been sooooo busy since returning from Singapore which has resulted in slacking on our blog.
There is much to update everyone on. We are currently in Utah spending the holidays with Jared's family. We will be here for 10 days. This is the first Christmas I will spend away from my family... a little sad for me. However, I love my in-law family. They are truly the best and always so much fun to be around.
Last night they had their annual family party. Jared has a much bigger family than I. There were over 40+ people including MANY children. I thoroughly enjoying being around all the kids. The youngest person in our family these days is my little sister, Jocelyn, she is 17. The family gathering includes a Christmas program with performances and more, a white elephant gift exchange and the infamous spoons game.
The spoons game in this family is NO JOKE! They have had to limit the game to age 12 and up because things can get rowdy at times. The game usually starts with about 10-15 people. My dear husband has tried so hard to win this game for the past 5 years. He has been in the championship round each year. The past 4 years his cousin Shad and his wife Jenna have won. We are determined to win next year.
I will give a full update with pictures when we return home. Until then, we want to wish all of our family and friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
P.S. I had planned to do my Christmas cards when we came up to Utah. Shortly after we arrived, I realized I left them on our sofa. So, we want everyone to know we are thinking about them and that we hope you all have a wonderful Holiday Season.
Lots of love, The Kennedys
