Random December

December for us was packed full with craziness! I had 2 different company parties that we went to, we were in charge of a group at Abram's works Sub for Santa, and still had all of the other usual festivities. So here is the random stuff other than Christmas from our December.

Abram works for APX Alarm(now Vivint). Every Christmas time they put on a huge Sub for Santa program. We were able to be in one of the groups last year and experience it. This year Abram and I were put in charge of a group. APX raised $120,000.00 this year. They help more then 1,800 underprivileged children. It is one of the most amazing experiences and it really helps us get into the true Christmas spirit when we are able to help parents provide a Christmas for their children. First we gather all together to learn who we are going to be shopping for then we hit the stores, making sure that each child on our list receives a book, 2 pieces of clothing, and toys. The next day we go back to APX to wrap up the gifts and get everything ready to deliver. Then we head out to deliver the gifts to the families on our list. It is a very humbling experience. I'm so grateful that we were able to be a part of it again this year.

For my work party for Provo River Constructors they took us on the Heber Valley Railroad. It was pretty long but it was entertaining and fun for Abram to be able to meet people that I work with.


Abram acting like he was having a lot of fun! It was his first time on a train and the whole motion sickness thing did not help that out!!
