For Christmas, we were crazy enough to go to Utah and Erin and John were nice enough to let us invade their house. Allie, Amanda and myself drove up in one car, My dad and Travis drove up in another car and Allan, Galen and my mom flew up. Jason Nicki and Tessa met us up there the Saturday after Christmas. While we were there we decided to try and get a picture of all the grandkids in their pretty/handsome Christmas attire. Well as you can see it was past Riley's nap time, Allie had only been asleep for her nap for 20 minutes when we had to wake her up, Tessa had just arrived and had the dress thrown on quickly, Jahnna was trying her hardest and Colby I think was the most cooperative one. Man, what does that say about the girls??? 
Maybe Nicki was able to get a better shot since she's really good at photography. I realized though that it is really hard to get 5 kids all smiling let alone just looking at the camera at the same time. It was crazy but pretty fun. It was really neat to see them all interacting and enjoying the time they had to play together. Allie absolutely loved visiting and playing with her cousins. She still keeps asking if we can go play at Erin's house. The other day she went and got her boots and gloves and said she wanted to go play in the snow. How do you explain to someone who's not even two yet that it doesn't snow here. She just said yes we go to Erin's. While in Utah, we were also able to spend some time with Allan's family. Marcus, Ann and Ashlyn even made a trip up to say hello. We were sorry to miss Becca, Parish and Brock maybe next time.

Well here is just a bunch of random pictures from our fun trip. We really enjoyed our time with family and wish we could get everyone together more often.
