Holiday Adventures

We were lucky enough to enjoy our holiday adventures in Utah again this year, surrounded by family and loved ones! We didn't know if it would happen because of the huge snow storms that hit the northwest, but we were blessed to have 4wheel drive and decided to brave the snow and the 2 day driving adventure. (The first we've made since living here and the kids did indcredibly well, thanks to the dvd player, a pit stop at my cousin Leslie's, and the coolest McDonald's playland ever in Pocatello. I seriously dislike micky d's, but would live in Pocatello just to go to this one!)

We were a little torn leaving our cozy, decorated home with presents under the tree, (which is a first for us because we are normally packing for a flight and you can't wrap anything) and leaving the gorgeous snow covered wonderland behind, but boy howdy did we have a great time!

We had Christmas at Brian's parents first, then spent time at my parents for New Years. We had great adventures playing games, eating great food, chatting with family, lots and lots of playing in the snow, including tubing, sleigh riding, knee boarding (the best time ever!), and way too many presents!

We also had a job interview while we were home!!! (Actually the excuse for us to go to Utah in the first place.) That's a whole other blog to come. Let's just say we are thrilled about what the future has in store for us. Here's a little hint.....We will soon be Colorado-ites. Crazy huh!?!

Here is a plethera of photos from our adventures. Kick back and enjoy!
