The most wonderful time!

Chris, me and Kelso had a great adventure up to Windsor Vermont to visit Chris' sister, Chelle and her family for Christmas. We were lucky enough to have dad's new snazzy FJ to cruise up in, which I felt much safer in since it didn't have bald tires like our poor little truck. Chris has bonded with "the cheese block", and I think he hopes one day I'll say it looks freaking awesome and that we should get one. It is a fun car though and it has a sweet sound system...Always an admired feature. Good pickins Rich.


It snowed the first two days we were there...Which was awesome, except the small fact that this meant Chris and Brig were off plowing for those two days. I'm surprised they came home happy, but I think Chris loved being out there working and helping. Aunt Chris...(sister -in-law of Chelle) I stole many of your pictures since I haven't gotten any of ours on the computer yet.. So these are not my skills in the photos :) I also hope it's alright for us to use them!

We had a great Christmas, playing Rockband with the extended family. Chelle and her mother-in-law made the three kids matching pajamas, the turtle was designed by none other then Brig himself. They all looked super cute.

we were lucky enough to be able to take Kelso with us, the kids loved him at first...But Kelso proved to be a little more fond of Anders then we would have liked him to be :)




Windsor has some super cute shops and we had a good time looking around. Our favorite is The Merc of course, Chris got me a bunch of cute kitchen items for Christmas. The store is owned by Chelle's brother in-law (they got some serious connections in that town:)) I thought this was an awesome advertisement. They also have a rad diaper bag at The Merc....So if anyone ever plans to get us one as a gift....? Just throwing it out there...You can take it, or send it right back. :)



Besides all the Christmas excitement, Chris and I have decided that we love winter for these very logical reasons:

  • We can cuddle even more then normal, strictly for warmth purposes of course :)
  • One of our favorites, we don't have school in the mornings or homework at night, we've decided that for now we love the real world much better then the student world. We have work just enough to keep us busy and the rest of the day is just nice and relaxing
  • Even though pregnancy has proven to keep me continually sick in some way or another, Chris has been taking care of me, and has made me feel all nice and spoiled. Also going along with the wonderful no school, I have all morning to rest up and get ready to work instead of a crazy hour break before work. It's simply glorious.
  • One of my favorites is I get to wear sweaters and scarves.
  • and luckily our truck has a heater which is so much more sweet then the summer without a/c.
(Yes, such deep reasons aren't they?)

We will try to get more of our pictures up soon. We hope everybody had a wonderful Christmas and we hope to see the West Coast family soon!

Thanks Chris and Mike for the Pictures! Here's the link to all of their awesome pictures! They got skillz.

What a great recap, even though it was crazy and busy it was so great having you both here. In fact I don't even want to think about what it would have been like without you both here! It was a blast and I have to say you totally won me over when you were so up for climbing a ladder to shovel 6 feet of snow off a 20 ft roof!

Thanks again both of you!! One of these times you guys come up here we'll make sure to show you a good time.

Your comments were fun, and I loved the pictures even though I had seen them already. I love the name cheese block. I hereby claim it for the FJ! Looking forward to seeing you guys next week. Dad
