Happy New Year!

What an amazing trip! The kids and I spent over six weeks in Texas and boy was it tons of fun. Here is the update of the things we did between the last post and now. . .

Isabelle turned 2! What an amazing day we had on December 24 for Isabelle’s birthday. She had an ice cream cake, presents and her favorite meal chicken spaghetti. She just loves the noodles. . .

On the 25th we celebrated Christmas, with the family. Grandparents, great-grandparents, kids and parents, were all in attendance. The kids made out pretty good, and so did Ben and I. I think that everyone was pretty happy with the gifts they were given and received. Best of all of course was the food and company . . .

From there we picked up Adam and had a wonderful three days with him. Everyone had lots of fun and enjoyed each other’s company a ton . . .

After waiting on the weather and visiting with family we made our slow trek home. It took us the better part of two days but it was still a good drive. We stopped at the four corners on the way home and everyone had a chance to stand in four states at once. How cool is that. I think that I was the only one overly excited about the stop but hey you only get to live once.

Now we are back in Utah, doing the same old stuff. Not really since when we got home I had to clean, put things away and unpack. Being gone for so long wears you out once you get home. Who would have thought! Anyway, our trip was good and we are all glad to be home once again together as a family.
