G.F.T.H
(Girls from the Hood)
Top Row: Lynette 'Shaw', Julianne 'Shaw', Candice 'Cooper', Megan 'Staker', Jenny 'Quibell'
Bottom: Mindy 'Staker', Liz 'Clegg', Katie Clegg, & Michelle Clegg 
However this came about (I'll take most the credit I guess), We decided to have a girls from the old West Valley neighborhood party. While Many didnt show, super bummed about that (and if any of you happen to read my blog, we missed ya) It was still a good time. We had some food and laughed and chatted about the good old days. To sum it up I believe we all know how blessed we all were to live where we did and grow up having the friendships that we all shared. We all took part in 'Growing up, TOGETHER'. Even if it was, or IS, 'The Hood'.. It never seemed to be. 
ChRiStMaS DaY!!
The Boys unwrapping their presents. Weston Loved FiNaLLy being able to open all his presents. Gage on the other hand was just happy to be there and a part of it. 
Lys opening the BiG DeaL.
Christmas day we went over to my parents.. Went Sledding (If you'd like to see some of that action refer HeRe), and we all Built an Igloo. Refer to Megs blog for that as well. She took a time lapse video of it. VeRy CooL.

Friday December 19th, Lexi Lou Treu's Birthday Bash:
Christina picked up two rooms at the Sleep in by South Towne and we all had a fun sleepover! We took the girls to the mall for a scavenger hunt, went back and let them swim in the pool laughed, chatted and slept! It was a fun time! I know the girls loved it. I might need to steal the idea just to do it again with Them!
