We had a great trip to Utah this winter. We got to see my family and Brandon's but of course we have practically no pictures of my family (since nobody ever has a camera) and TONS with Brandon's because they have keep a camera on hand. We loved spending time in the snow, with family, and having Brandon home all week. Seth cried when his dad went back to work after our trip and we had to chase him down the driveway for one last hug.
After our epic 9.5 hour drive we were relieved to be out of the car. I call it epic because the kids were amazing. Seriously, best road trip EVER! The next day we went straight to the polar express to have hot coco with elves and meet Santa.
Next was Christmas. The boys LOVED their gifts from their grandparents. Seth plays with his new animal zoo constantly and adores his great white shark. He wants another one for his birthday! I have never seen John attach himself to anything, we have offered him blankets and stuffed animals in the past to sleep with and he pretty much ignores them but he got this stuffed dog and he is obsessed. He wants it for every nap and at bedtime. He sucks on it's tail.

The rest of the trip was spent snuggling up by the fire and sledding.

All in all it was a great trip but it took an entire week before John would let us put him in his car seat without a fight. Poor kid thinks we might take him on another 10 hour drive.
