The holidays this year were pretty jammed packed, regardless of having a brand new baby we didn't let that slow us down!
First of all my best friend Ashley finally moved here from San Diego, and I couldn't be more excited! I love having her around. When she first got into town her and I went to lunch with our good friend Karli who was visiting from Louisiana. She is currently halfway through her pregnancy with a little boy, so we were very excited to see the little bump :)
That same weekend I had attended Karli's baby shower and got to also see my dear friend Jill, who I dearly miss seeing at work all the time.
We went to lights at Temple Square with BJ and Aubrey of course...
We took Ava to meet Santa for the first time. It was her favorite!...Not.
We also got to attend a super fun Ugly Sweater party thrown by our friends Mike and Tara. It was nice to see a bunch of our friends and finally hang out with them after being cooped up on the house for so long. We had the MOST delicious food and got to play Minute To Win It (Christmas style) The Christmas balls were a huge hit, and provided for some fun conversations haha
...We finally went out to dinner to celebrate Scott's birthday
and Aunt Katie came to visit baby Ava
The whole month leading up to Christmas was very hectic and very busy, but we got to spend valuable time with the people we love most, and we are extremely grateful to have such wonderful friends and family in our lives :)
*Christmas with the Allens post to come soon!
Your little girl is so adorable! I absolutly love her dark hair! So cute!
