Incredible!! Love the choirs and Love the inclusion!! Mr. Petersen is awesome! He realized One of the kiddos didn’t have a kazoo and ran and grabbed one and brought it back to him. My heart melted! I love when others notice, include and help others. Beautiful evening!!

These girls had so much fun with Aunt Sierra this weekend, scheduled their own appointments at NPC cosmetology with her students and then did their own little road trip up to Showlow. Fun to see my girls off on their own having a good time, being responsible! They loved seeing their aunt in action, she’s tons of fun and talented if you need a good haircut head up to NPC cosmetology. They did a fabulous job on my girls!! Thank you #madnesswiththemerrillbudz #merrillsworktogetherplaytogetherstaytogether #cutehaircuts #npccosmetology #thankyou #independence #everyonehappierandhealthier

Happy Ugly Christmas Sweater Night! lots of fun and laughs Grateful for such good friends Missed those that couldn’t make it! The holidays came quickly this year and pretty much snuck up on us. Love this time of year, seems to bring us just a bit closer together. My kids think it’s funny that the parents are friends and then they are friends with the kids. We are blessed to be surrounded by such good families #madnesswiththemerrillbudz #uglychristmassweaterparty #loveyou #merrychristmas

This girl is so much fun! She does so many crazy funny things… hiking with me, dancing, being silly! Doing hard things and she breaks her foot going down the stairs. I love the joy in her face because she was put in a boot rather than a cast! Yay!!! That was the good she found in all of it She was really concerned that she wouldn’t be able to go help build houses in Mexico after Christmas but the doctor said she could so that’s all that mattered to her! In fact she invited him to go with us next year to do humanitarian work and he’s excited too! #spreadjoy #loveothers #madnesswiththemerrillbudz #merrillsworktogetherplaytogetherstaytogether #chooseyourhard #everyonehappierandhealthier

Good Night one and all!! Sending our love, prayers and hugs. Merry Christmas Our Savior loves us and wants us to have peace and joy We broke away from tradition this year and spent time in a resort in Scottsdale. This brought us closer to Loren‘s parents and we get to spend the weekend with them. So grateful for friends and family. Love that the holidays bring us closer together. Hug, love and remember to forgive each other. #madnesswiththemerrillbudz #merrillsworktogetherplaytogetherstaytogether #merrychristmas #loveyou #everyonehappierandhealthier

We grow from pains and struggles, we learn from our mistakes, we cultivate our passions, we work on our dreams and we experience ups and downs. It’s been an interesting, exciting, magical year! Happy Holidays! We love and are so grateful to you all.
