Christmas in NM and AZ

Christmas was a little crazy this year. We decided to stay with my family in New Mexico. We flew into Phoenix and stayed a few days with  my grandma who lives in Mesa. We got to drive by and see the Mesa, AZ Temple lights. They are always beautiful. We spent the majority of our time in NM with my parents and my sister Elisa and her 3 kids. 3 kids under the age of 3...We've decided that when we have kids we will definitely be spacing their ages further apart. :) I loved holding Olyvia who is about 6 months old...I want one :) We went to the annual Mortensen family Christmas party, that was fun too. We were able to go the the Gila Valley Temple twice during our visit. I always love going to the temple. The whole trip was just crazy, but I loved it. I love being around family. We found out that there is a job possibility in Thatcher, it is smaller than Greeley, and I would miss all the shopping places here, and the green and snow. We shall see. The plan is to just apply everywhere! Whatever sounds the best, or we feel is the right choice is where we will end up. I'm just going to post pictures because I actually started writing this blog like a few weeks ago and I still haven't finished it. I kinda forgot about it. SO here are the pics.
