One thing we really wanted to do with our girls is to go sledding. Growing up, I used plastic sleds(like in the pic) and Andy used tubes. So we figured we needed both. We reasoned that the plastic are easier to steer, but the tubes are WAY more gentle on your rumps. Needless to say, the plastic sled was returned to the store.
I couldn't get over how cute they were all bundled up. We never get to see them like this!! After driving about to Brighton ski resort, we found enough snow to have a complete blast.
They each took turns going alone, together, and with one of us(expect pregnant me).
Maren was so excited, that she'd get off her tube, and then run it back up to the top to go again.
We went to my parent's home to spend the latter part of the week, and to eat Thanksgiving dinner. Here's my brother's daughter who is 1 year older than Maren. They had a blast together, and we found mine and Carrie's old My Little Pony collection:) Does anyone still remember the smell of these like I do?!
We made it down to Provo that weekend to watch the BYU women's team play against the infamous UNC. What a great game, unfortunately the cougs lost. UNC was incredibly fast, just like I'd always heard.
We slept over 2 nights at my brother and sister-in-laws home in Woodland Hills. We made gingerbread houses and had a great time with the younger kids. I don't think I saw Maren all day because she was busy playing with cousins, it's a great feeling. Andy and the boys went fishing that day and caught 68 fish at Strawberry reservoir. His fishing curse has officially ended!
Last but not least, we got to see my Grandpa in St. George on our way home. He's such a great man, all 95 years of him! I'm just glad our girls get to know him.
