What break?

Christmas break was very eventful! An extra week or two would have made it actually feel like a break. During our time out of school we:
  • moved into an apartment. Last night we hung pictures on the walls so it our move-in is now official.

  • attended Elyse's (T-man's cousin) wedding. Lots of quality time with cousins and a spectacular reception in the capital rotunda.
  • spent a week with T-man's family in Rexburg. We made a rare ski trip while in Idaho and I am proud to say that S braved an intermediate run and made it down with out falling! Go Cali girl!

  • took family pictures. Letty and Gracie did very well.

  • got snowed in at Mountain River Ranch in rural Idaho. Letty loved the horse-drawn sleigh and music, but slept through the exciting ride home through highly drifted roads.

  • shoveled, shovled and shovled some more (though not nearly as much as our Spokane friends)

  • built a snow mansion, held an epic snowball fight, went caroling, snow surfing and sledding, and played numerous games of Ticket to Ride.

  • celebrated T-man's entering into a new decade of life

I'm glad you are moved in. It was great to spend some much of the holidays with you.

Wow, you guys were busy!!! Sounds like tons of fun and you are probably ready to just be at home for awhile :) Although, that means unpacking...

OH you little girls are growing and changing. So precious. I love that I can stop by once in a while and read about your 'blessed life'. Hugs...
