This was the first time we have done something like this but I don't think it will be our last. We did our own Thanksgiving this year with all the stuff for the house going on so we decided to get together for Christmas. It worked out great because we hadn't gotten to see their house since they moved in. We went the weekend before Christmas. Unfortunately Kimber ended up getting the stomach flu along with her kiddos so they didn't come after all. Some of us stayed at a hotel and others with mom and dad since there house is to small for all of us. We got together and did breakfast on Saturday morning. On our way from the hotel to my parents Liam dumped his smoothie on his lap and we didn't have more clothes so we made a quick stop at Target and got him all cleaned up and in new clothes. We hung out while the kids played and the girls and I made cookie treats for mom mom's neighbor gifts. Then we headed to a burger place in St. George for lunch its called Morty's it was one of the best burgers I had ever eaten. It was also huge. After we came home and watched a movie and did more hanging out and playing. Later that evening the kids got their gifts from my mom and dad and then while they were playing we, as adults, did a gag gift exchange. It was one of the best years yet. I don't have many fun or funny memories with Grandma Harris and it was one for the books. She was so fun. We laughed until we almost peed our pants. The pictures will show proof of why this happened. It was not a long trip but was fun to be together and make lots of memories. The time spent with family really is priceless.
