How many pictures can I keep on my camera at a time? Apparently too many. I cleaned it off today and have decided to update the blog!!
Merry Chirstmas! We spent Christmas in Idaho this year. Planned and packed for lots of snow and sledding. Didn't have time to go sledding, we have too many other things going on. Oh, and it didn't snow. You have got to be kidding you might say? Well, it flurried and was gone within an hour. Yes, no snow in the mountains for Christmas!! We made so many happy memories and had suck a fun time just watching the kids play.
If you are a new parent or have an idea to try somehing new...my advice is to NOT try Make-it and Bake-its with toddlers and with a wobbly table. Not worth the headache. But it is fun to have the finished product now. Jenny had lots of crafts and activites planned to keep the kids busy. VERY little TV was watched. Lots of music recitals, concerts and books read aloud happened instead.
A plane ride from Omaha to Denver and finally to Salt Lake City followed by a 3 hour drive in a BLIZZARD. The girls did amazing and there was minimal whining. Some peeing on the side of the road in a blizzard as I have a daughter who gets her tummy in knots when we travel in the car.
Lots of time spent doing crafts, blowing kisses to each other through the glass door. Pretty sure Jenny instigated that one!
I still have over 140 pictures just from this trip...but check out the sleeping arrgnements these kids made for themselves. Now this is what bonding with your cousins is all about!!

We did have a great time and all 12of us stayed together at the Weslh Family Inn :-) It was awesome to be all together at Christmas. The kids got along great and picked up playing where they left off last time they were together.
Yes, the kids decided on their own sleeping arrangements (except Ella got a dbl futon all to her self in the same room with mom & dad). Yes there was some late night talking and giggling from the kids but isn't that what makes some of the best memories :-) Looking forward to more times together.
Always and all ways
