snow...snow...and more snow

For Christmas vacation we spent time with my parents in Utah. Unfortunately, I got sick and spent most of the vacation in bed. I really feel like I missed out on the entire vacation. Gratefully, my husband, parents and sister stepped up and saved the day. My kids loved the trip and we loved seeing the family. The other high point was visiting one of my favorite places...SONIC. My friend Kelly got me hooked on the Diet Coke with real cherries. I loved having this treat....honestly a little too much!

Oh how I miss the mountains...but the snow, not so much!

While sledding, E2 fell asleep and enjoyed being dragged everywhere.

Grandpa made sure to get the kids a super fast ride!
The boys did not want to stop playing in the snow...the first thing they asked for when they woke up is if they could play outside. Burr...I could not handle the cold and they didn't ever notice it.

On the way home I was feeling better and we stopped in St. George to visit my sister and her family for New Years. It was really, fun even if I only made it to 11pm on New Year's Eve. Sleep is just too precious these days!!
The weather was so nice in St. George that Fly Guy was able to go rock climbing with my brother & brother-in-law and then they all played paint ball with the nephews. My sister & I took the kids to a really cool park and then we ditched the kids and shopped for jeans. My sister has lost a ton of weight and looks fabulous and it was fun seeing her in tiny jeans!!!

The kids look like they loved the snow. I have to agree with you,the missing the sceanary, but not missing the snow. I was so glad it melted here. Sorry to hear that you were under the weather, but I'm glad you went to see your family. Cute pictures!
