Fun for the new year

 Jan. 1 we loaded up and headed to Wyoming to visit family. Since my mom works for the school district she was able to get us into the Middle school to play a day. We were able to use the P.E. roller skates, scooter boards, pogo sticks and so much more. It was a great break from the house and snow and wind to go and play..

 Aubree and Grandpa played Cribbage.  

Only Aubree could follow the rules enough to play.. the rest of us gave up... it was a little complicated and involved math.. but Aub loves math, so it was right up her alley.

We also enjoyed the hot tub.

We spent one night at Gma and Gpa Francis' house again. We love spending time there with them, and they seemed to be doing pretty good. I am so thankful for them! 

Hallie's always has to pull out the puzzles! (puzzles I did when I was young)

 

Saturday the 4th was Kristian's baptism. So we headed to Sandy to be there for that. It was fun being with cousins for just a short time. We wish we could have stayed longer to hang out, but we had to head home.

All the kids....

 All the adults....

snow fun...

The Matthews family invited us to go with them to McCall for a quick over night trip. We stayed in their neighbors' little cabin and bunk house. It was cozy and cute. Shortly after arriving we unloaded, and got ready to go sledding. We went to the hill on the golf course. The kids had a ton of fun.

After sledding we regrouped and went to the pancake house for dinner, then it was back for the movie "Never Ending Story".

Saturday morning the plan was to sled a little more then hit the hot springs and head home. However, after breakfast the stomach bug hit Brae, so we loaded just us up and headed for home. The big girls were pretty upset about having to leave early, but it all worked out. 

We are thankful again for the invite, that we were able to go and have so much fun...

I am also glad Kim always takes so many pictures because my camera died half way thru the fun... 

I will let the gazillion of pictures tell the rest....
