Christmas Vacation

We were able to take our annual trip to Washington this year. I love that we can take our family of 5 and crash Rory's parents house. It is quite the sight. People move bedrooms, the couches are occupied, and luggage is scattered everywhere, but they are happy as clams to see us. This year we played in the snow and relaxed for a week and loved every minute of it. Here are some pictures of the trip. 

A picture of the beautiful scenery. There was tons of snow this year. 

The first day of sledding w/ the cousins. This was a great hill.

I got a new camera for Christmas and some adorable pictures of my kids.

Wouldn't you agree??

Oh my I love this kid.

Come on really? The cutest thing I've ever seen.

Here is one moment where my girls are not tearing eachother's heads off. Aren't they sweet?

Grandma attempted to build a fire but we never got it going.

Making cookies w/ Grandma - a yearly tradition.

We met our new nephew Colton. What a sweet baby. 

Because of the snow and mud we had to walk to our car. This is one of our trips. 

Some more beautiful scenery.

"Oh there's our car!" 

Grandma had a huge sledding party with all of the family. It was so fun.

Rory's Aunt Betty getting in on the action.

Kole wasn't a huge fan of the sled but he liked it this way.

Rory's brother Ryan enjoying himself. He went down the hill as much as the kids. 

Kole and I enjoying the fire.

Even I went down the hill a few times.

Cute family picture except Saige was mad about something.

I can't stop taking pictures of this kid.

The next day on the trip to the car, the kids got a ride.

Uncle Don and Cindy w/ Joey. It was fun to see everyone on Rory's Dad's side of the family.

We celebrated New Years a day early and did fireworks outside in the freezing cold.

Saying good-bye to Rory's Grandma.

Paiton drew her a few pictures to remember us.

Bye Grandma!

This was our New Years Eve - a hotel room in Dillon, Montana. We were asleep by 11.
