Our Christmas adventure began with a late night drive to Utah. Ryan insisted that he wanted to drive through, not arriving until 2:30 am. I wanted to stop in Boise. I didn't want to admit, because I'm a firm believer in driving during day light hours, but those drive-through-the-night people have a good argument. Can I just say that there is something quite peaceful about driving when all the kids are asleep and no one is arguing, crying or needing to go potty!
The week was filled with shopping (in a real city, with real stores,) playing with cousins, eating lots of good food (probably too much goodies and chocolate were involved,) playing games and laughing. Lots of laughing.
What a great way to spend Christmas: surrounded by family!

Christmas morning

We played lots of games. Blockus, Apples to Apples, Boggle, and Uno Attack! Isn't it sad when your 9 year old son is better than you are at some of these games. He's a thinker!

It wouldn't be a vacation without some serious movie watching!





What a great picture. Abby and Grandma!
Merry Late Christmas. Hope your Christmas was as great as ours!

Wow...what great pictures!!! I'm SO, SO glad you were here for Christmas! And I miss you already!
Those are great pictures. I'm glad you got to come and and be with your family, that's the best part!
We are so glad that you got to come to this family for Christmas. We get jealous that Ryan's parents get you every day
It looks like you had a lovely Christmas. As I contemplate a family trip with Peter, the only way I can see it working is if we drove through the night...but then we'd be beat and need to sleep and Peter would be a bundle of energy! Yikes. By the way, where are you living these days? I think I'm behind the times.
