Merry Christmas!!!
After spending much of the year in Pennsylvania fixing up our home and enjoying our great friends and the green trees we moved back to Utah. The cross country drive was long and hard, but it is great to be back with our family. We will miss our Pennsylvania friends a lot. In PA we enjoyed being a part of the BYU Alumni chapter and generally sporting our BYU spirit every where we went. We enjoyed seeing many Pennsylvania sights. We loved camping as a family, seeing exotic animals, using chalk, and being crafty. We traveled to CA for a Hatch family reunion in the summer. After moving back to Utah we have loved seeing all of the family that we have missed.
