Australia!

We were in Australia visiting Luke's family for Christmas and New Years.
I didn't have a camera for a couple of days, so I'm missing some photos.
These are a few of my favorites:
Miles and Masie at Mermaid Beach

Christmas morning at Luke's parents' home

Masie modeling her swimwear

Miles modeling his (lack) of swimwear
Leif, Taylor, and Miles at Masie's sealing
Miles at Daniel's farm
The best thing to happen during our trip was the blessing and sealing of Masie. She is eternally a part of our family. You don't see a picture of her in her white dress as one of my favorites b/c I'm waiting for my sister-in-law to send one that really shows how gorgeous she looked.
Miles learned to really enjoy the beach this trip and had so much fun with all of his cousins.
Masie didn't disappoint anyone with her ever ready smile, but she didn't like the heat.
I really enjoyed relaxing and watching the kids have fun.
Luke was in heaven spending time with his family and old friends.

Thanks so much for sharing these. What a special thing and that's so cool you could be sealed to her there with Luke's family. The kids are so lovely.

That SKY is beautiful. I'm dying with all our snow and inversion here. ugh

Your family is beautiful. How amazing to be sealed to Masie in Australia with Lukes family.
I cannot get over what a fish Miles is. Thomas would do anything to swim everyday all year long. I love seeing your family at the beach, playing on the slip and slide in DECEMBER!! We had a warm day yesterday, I think it got in the 50's.

I LOVE the pictures! So cute! I think we gave Masie that little swimsuit and doesn't she look so cute in it?!

Looks like an amazing time in Australia!

Masie's growing up so fast! I'm glad you guys had a good holiday! Thank you also for offering encouragement to my friend, Arabeth, to go ahead and adopt. I'm so excited for them!
Your kids are beautiful! I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of Masie's blessing dress.
