Christmas with the Kranks

Finally! I'm updating my blog! We pulled a Christmas with the Kranks and descended upon my parents who were heading to Hawaii for Christmas. We got a few days with them and then a great trip with my sister and brother's families.

Unfortunately, 4 days after getting there, my camera's battery died, so I don't have any pictures after Christmas. Once I get them from my sister and sister-in-law, I'll blog about it.

Here is a synopsis of our trip. What is missing is a visit to a children's museum. Lots of playing, lots of swinging, lots of games, awesome sledding, little sleeping, and lots of fun. In Minnesota, we played on a bounce house, played wally ball in my brother's sport court (so fun!), and had a second Christmas with them.

We put our house on the market before we left and are hoping to be able to short sell soon. Then, we're praying to move to Minnesota as soon as possible. Hopefully it will be sooner than later.

It was glorious to be in zero degree temperatures and surrounded by snow. We loved every minute of it. We needed some serious sleep catching up when we got home, but we loved it just the same.

B/c the rest need to know, I'm off the hook b/c I sent her the pics last week :) Sadly, my camera was conveniently out of batteries a lot too, including for the memorable sledding trip of the 3 year olds, and the 4 month old who fell asleep mid-slide.
