Home again!

Well my vacation is officially over! I had a BLAST! It was great not having to think about anything and just really enjoy myself. Here are a few highlights.

The GOOD:


*Flying and traveling with GREAT kids...really other than David crying all the way to the hotel the first night and screaming a little on the last flight they were so good!

*Seeing my family - brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, cousins, mom and dad, grandma and grandpa...man I have such a wonderful family!

*Watching the kids interact with Grandma and grandpa

*Helping Suzie and her family get and decorate her tree.

* Seeing the Temple with all the lights! And driving to the temple doing a session in 2.5 hours! WOW. It was great.

*Seeing friends from medical school! They were SO great to put up with us for the night and feed us before our journey back.

*The kids loved jumping on the trampoline, playing at the park, climbing trees, raking leaves, swimming (on 2 occasions!) riding horses and chasing chickens :)








It was such a relief knowing that Aaron had a job and that we didn't have to do any more interviews. We kept saying - today we would be in Prescott - or wherever we were supposed to be that day. It was great just being able to relax!


The BAD: On the way home from Suzies Aaron got pulled over. He didn't have his license. The car had a huge "for sale" written on the front and back and he was driving with his brights on. Fortunately for us it was just warning but as we were sitting there someone pulled up to tell the police that someone had just hit an elk. I am glad that wasn't us!


The UGLY: Sarah got sick Thursday and threw up a few times...fortunately for us she was fine Friday and Saturday. Sunday morning it hit her once more...but she is back at school today. She was excited to go back.

Well that about sums it up. On the way back I told Aaron and we have to do this again in 20 days! We are going to CA for Christmas...fun times!
