Anyhoo the second part of our Christmas trip was up north at my parents house. It always seem more stressful is Salt Lake for Ross and I. All of my family, Ross's extended family and most our friends live in the Salt Lake Valley. I felt like every day we were running around trying to see as many people as we could. We really would have a schedule for the day. We need to be out of the house at this time, then see them and then go there.. Poor Jacksons schedule got all messed up. (Don't worry we are paying for it now :). DESPITE all the running around and people getting mad because we didn't see them more then once we had so so much fun. I love being able to hang out with my family and friends.
Jackson started doing his fishy face while we were there!
He also started showing everyone his muscles! Yes his face is like this every time. He such a cute boy
Bath time was so fun at oma's house because of the bubble blower! Jackson would stand like the whole time popping the bubbles
We had to go see Temple Square lights while we were there. This was one thing I was most excited to do while we were there and I wasn't disappointed! Jackson love looking at all the lights, he spent the night running from place to place.

Jackson's favorite were these lantern things. We spent a good twenty minutes walking back and forth looking at them
You have to have a temple picture
Everyone at my families Christmas party! I can't believe how big my family has gotten.. Its always a good time when all of us get together. Mostly making fun of each other and if your not the one being made fun of its a great time lol
Jackson on the other hand did not like the fist hour or so of the party. Its sad but he doesn't really know his aunts and uncles and he was scared to have everyone there and trying to talk to him. If he wasn't crying and making one of Ross or I hold him he was at the sliding door looking at the kitty! We realized there that Jackson loves cats. He would wake up every morning and ask to see the kee.
He finally warmed up to everyone and started playing with his cousin Addi and Oma.

It was also so Ross's birthday while we were there. Ross and I wen't out to dinner to the Melting Pot (thanks Kendall:) that evening and then came back and played games with some of my family.
Ross and Jackson looking at the kitty! Twenty times a day this happened
Jackson and Oma looking at the bird. Another daily occurrence
So many fun things happened while we were there!! We also celebrated my mom's 50th birthday! She didn't like that she was turning 50 and told us she didn't want a big party or anything lol So all the family wen't out to dinner. Thanks to Heidi for decorating the table!
We all then came back to my parents house and had cheesecake! Jackson helping Oma blow out her candles
Jackson like the candles so much that he followed Heidi to the kitchen and had to blow another one out
Jackson and his cousin Addison! This is the best picture we could get of them lol
And last but not least Opa and Jackson outside in the SNOW. We were so excited to be able to have Jackson see the snow and be able to play in it and the only snow we saw snow was at six in the morning as we were headed to the airport!! Stupid weather
