We are truly missing our loved ones in Utah right now and are so grateful to them for showing us such a wonderful time there. We are currently in Colorado, enjoying time with my family and waiting for the rest of Malu's siblings to arrive for Christmas (his younger brother, Vaea, is already here with us). We can't wait.
I guess I should also add that our little girl has been getting spoiled left and right and I know she is loving every minute of it!
In any case, this picture was taken at our friend, Jennifer's, Ugly Christmas Sweater party just a few days before we left El Paso. Since all of our stuff had been packed and we really didn't feel like buying sweaters (and ugly Christmas ones at that) we found these really funny shirts at Target. They were about $7 and a big hit at the party. While we were at Target, we also found an "Elf in Training" outfit for our baby girl and she was also a big hit at the shindig, although the outfit was slightly too big for her.
While I'm mentioning El Paso and friends, I just want to thank all of our wonderful El Paso friends (you all know who you are) who made our experience there so memorable. On one of the evenings before we left, about 25 of our closest friends and their kids threw a farewell party for us at one of our favorite restaurants in town. We were presented with beautiful parting gifts and shared a few laughs and lots of hugs. Later in the week, Jennifer held her party and we were able to spend some time with her and her family (she grew up in El Paso) who I'd become extremely close to while living in El Paso. So everyone truly just made us feel so special and we can't thank you guys enough for your love and support. We miss you guys so much already!
Well, it's late and I must get to bed. I promise to post about our Utah trip soon!
