Home for Christmas

  • It was so nice being back in Salt Lake for Christmas! We loved being with family and friends.
  • Kinnie did awesome on the plane, Andrew did pretty good too. We were mostly worried about our cautious Kinnie, but she couldn't have done any better. The only hard thing of the day for her were the automatic flushing toilets at the airport. She is terrified!
  • I didn't take nearly enough pictures, I always do that.
  • We made sure to go to Hires and Cafe Rio.
  • I think I could have used at least one more week there.
  • Andrew got his first ear infection our last week there. It left us with a grumpy, clingy, and sick little boy. We didn't get to do a lot of the things we wanted to do but we were grateful it was taken care of before the plane ride back.
  • Kinnie loved her new baby doll from Santa. Andrew could have cared less about his presents. He enjoyed playing with Kinnie's play set of pots and pans and her dress-up shoes...not surprised.

It was a blast!
We're all going through withdrawals and missing you like crazy.
Owen talks about his "pousins" and the air plane every day.
Great pictures!
