The Champions of City League! 
My happy little girl is getting bigger and bigger and is always so happy! Lately we have been spending a lot of time at the gym watching Mace play basketball. Kenidee loves going to watch him play and actually will sit still periodically and really cheer for him. I love when she yells DAD and GO, GO, GO! She is getting pretty good at it and Mace can actually hear her sometimes on the court.
We headed north last weekend to celebrate Shaye's birthday at Brighton. We had a lot of fun it was a great day to be on the slopes.
Sorry Chris only part of you made it in the picture, the funny thing is the guy taking the pic took an extra one to get him in and this was the result. Ha Ha
Although it has been pretty cold, we still have had some nice days to get outside, buddled up of course. Kenidee loves being outside even if it is only for a short time in the cold.
So my little girl is now 1.5, she is getting so big way too fast. This time last year she was sprouting her first teeth and army crawling around the house. Now she is babbling like crazy and running around with her own agenda. Today she also attended Nursery for the first time and let me tell you she handled it like a pro. I have been in nursery before and kids will come in happy until their mom leaves and then screaming, crying, clenching, and pure terror fill them. Luckily I did not have to experience that or I probably would have just left with her. We walked in I told her teacher her name, she sat down on a little chair, and said Bye. I gave her kiss and told her to be a good girl and she waved and said "Kay!" When Mace picked her up she was pushing a chair around as he walked in she stopped waved and said Hi and continued on her way. What a champ she totally is miss independant. She really loved it and I am so glad she did. It's sad she is so big but so fun to watch her grow and learn so much. I love her to death and still can't get enough of her.
Kenidee's new favorite treat, CUPCAKES!
Brylee came for a short visit and Kenidee did not want her to leave. They play so good together, I love it. Brylee either is following Kenidee around or Kenidee is following her, they are adorable together.
Ice skating in St. George for New Years!
Kenidee loved skating around, more with Mace because he would go fast and then put her down and she would kick her feet.
Sledding in Fairview.
Kenidee didn't stay on very well but she was a trooper like Joey's dog pulled her around on this little sled.
We made a stop at the Festival of Lights in Spanish Fork, 
These are our sweet Christmas sweatshirts!
Thank you Charlie for the beanies, gloves, and sweatshirts!
Kenidee and her new bike from Aunt D, Thank you! She loves the knee pads and helmet. Although it is a little big for her she will get some good use out of it.
We had a great Christmas holiday with both of our families. Kenidee loved opening presents and may have gotten spoiled by her Grandmas. Even though we were traveling back and forth due to my work schedule it was still a lot of fun.
Mace's little brother Mitchell returned from his mission from Tuxtla Gutierrez, Mexico. The five of us were able to go back to his mission the week before Christmas. It was a lot fun and such a great experience to go back with him, we missed Kenidee but she had a lot of fun with Grandma and Grandpa Garlick. Just a warning this is a super long post, but I had to show all our adventures.
Our first stop was in San Cristobal. This is such a cute city, it is up in the mountains and is beautiful.
Mace's favorite part of the trip of course was the tacos! Mitchell took us to his favorite little stop on the street for a yummy taco or 15 for Mace.
This was our first experience with the ruins. The basketball courts were very cool, it reminded me of The Road to El Dorado. All the ruins are so amazing.
This is Chiflon, it was such a pretty hike up the river with waterfalls along the way. We stopped at a little swimming hole and Mitchell was able to have his first swim since before his mission.
Another of our favorite courts.
These ruins were at Tonina, this spot was my favorite. The city they have uncovered is amazing. We climbed to top and it seriously gets a little scary your up so high and can see so far.
This waterfall was where the movie Predator was filmed. And of course Mace & Mitchell jumped in the water for a little swim.
Agua Azul was very cool, all the waterfalls were so pretty!
Mace & Mitchell entertained many on the rope swing and climbing up the waterfalls
The weather wasn't exactly the Mexico weather we had hoped for but luckily we were prepared with our sweet packs.
The ruins in Palenque were awesome like the other ones. It was amazing to walk up and down them and imagine what it was like so many years ago.
Oddly enough we found ourselves ordering hot chocolate more we do when we're at home.
This is on our way to what was the coldest boat ride but very cool.
The boat ride was really cool through the canyon
Once I saw these little chairs I knew I had to take one back to Kenidee. Since we only had our backpacks we had to pack them with us. It was well worth it though, Kenidee loves her new little chair.
The temple ended up being closed the day we were in Tuxtla so we took some pictures outside at least.
We stopped by and met Mitchell's mission president and wife. They of course were wonderful people and it was so good to sit and talk with them.
