Truckee


For New Year's we headed up to Truckee to visit Aaron's brother and family.  This is a minimum of about 9 1/2 hours of driving and we had a 5 week old baby but the kids did amazing (although it did take about 12 hours at our pace.)  Aaron's sister, Rebekah, also joined us on the drive.  There was lots of beautiful snow and the kids really enjoyed playing in it.  We had a great visit, it is wonderful to have family we enjoy visiting so much.  We had a crazy drive home as we got caught in a snowstorm.  We were exhausted by the time we were clear of the snowstorm and it was already 7 p.m. so we got a hotel and took an extra day to get home.


Maddie sitting in the snow, she ended up getting really cold and when we went inside we discovered she had never put any socks on or pants underneath her snowpants

Justin all bundled up
Zach climbing back up the sled run after a bad wipeout, we were so proud of him for trying again.

Some Christmas Fun

Here are just a few cute pictures from Christmas time. We are all doing well, although we are very busy and I hope to post more about our lives soon!


Justin with my grandpa.  It is great that he has been able to meet all my children.
Maddie adores her baby brother and holds him whenever she can.
