Christmas in Idaho

You have to know we were so excited to head to Idaho for Christmas this year. Last year we weren't able to go back and this year it was a must since Kamden had not met most of his aunts, uncles, cousins, and great grandparents. I can not even tell you how much fun we had. I would have been happy to skip all the issues we had with our baggage while flying but we made it both ways safe so I'm grateful for that! One lesson learned is that the car seats Southwest Airlines loans out are not ideal!

Anyways, we were all spoiled! Kamden was always in somebody's arms and mom and dad both got some time to relax and have fun too!

We spent a day traveling from Utah to Idaho visiting Kamden's great grandparents and then stayed in Grace a couple days until Christmas. We read the Christmas story, opened presents, and went to church with Nathan's family Christmas morning and then we were off to Blackfoot to visit family there. We visited, gave Kamden a bath after his huge blowout, opened presents, and ate until we couldn't eat anymore!






After Christmas we spent some time in Pocatello with family and friends, went fourwheeling a couple times, met the horse, played the Farming Game a few times, played Five Crowns a few times, watched a few movies, took some naps, had a baby shower for Shylo, got family pictures, experienced Kamden's worst blowout to date during family pictures, bundled up in the cold weather, stayed warm, went to the Lava Hot Pools, had hot chocolate and ice cream at the same time with good friends, got our feet zoned, and enjoyed some more time with family!






On New Years we blessed Kamden and had a lunch afterwards where we got to visit with more family and friends and then we came back east on Tuesday, January 3rd. We experienced some more unfortunate baggage issues and finally arrived back to our apartment early Wednesday morning around 2:00 am tired, worn out, and sick too! We wore ourselves out but recovered soon after and were wishing we were back in Idaho!
