New Year's Vacation

We just returned from our annual after Christmas trip to Grandma and Grandpa's house in sunny California! We had a fantastic time being with everyone. All three of Jason's sisters live right in Visalia so we get to see them when we visit which is really great. The boys and Katie had a blast swimming in the pool which Grandma and Grandpa heated up to a cozy 98 degrees just for them. They swam everyday for hours while we were there. We also went to a movie, bowling, and played Wii (since Grandpa and Grandma got one for Christmas). Whenever we go to visit Laura always gets a treasure hunt ready for all the boys to do together. They dress up like pirates and get to follow clues all over the house and outside, even some down by the neighbors or floating in the pool. This time they even got to dig the treasure up from the empty lot next to the house...so fun!! Thanks so much Laura the boys always love it and as Jason said this year you set the bar really high!!

We had our adults only New Year's Eve party with fondue, bunco, and balloon popping for prizes and fortunes. We had a really great time as usual, and truthfully our boys look forward to going to Grandma and Grandpa's house as much as they look forward to Christmas itself! Can't wait for our next visit.
