Thanksgiving and Plans for Christmas

Hi everyone! We were able to drive to my parent's house in Kansas for Thanksgiving and stayed for 3 days. The girls did wonderful for the 6.5 hour trip one way. Thank God for a dvd player. We didn't know if it would make a difference because they have never sit still enough to enjoy television, but they were really into it! Whew!! What a livesaver. The girls had a great time with my niece Gabrielle and it was so nice for them to play together. Nana and Papa were a huge help as well. We got to sleep in a little each morning while my parents fed Cari and Jillian breakfast. It was so sweet to hear the girls giggling and having such a great time while we just layed in bed! Carli and Jillian started doing a little tumbling too while we were in Kansas.



We are now getting ready for Christmas in Greeley with Matt's family and are really looking forward to it. The girls should enjoy it more this year and may actually be interested in their gifts. Last year they were just excited about all of the wrapping paper as most 1 year olds are I'm sure. The girls love all of the pretty lights that we have up at our house and in all of the stores. They say, "Oooh, pretty!" They also like Santa, but we don't think they will sit on his lap. We have yet to try it this year. They can't really say Santa and insist that his name is, "Salsa". So cute!! Our neighbors have one of those inflatable Santas in their yard that seems to fall down everyday and the girls say, "Uh oh, Salsa fall." They are so worried about "Salsa" being hurt. It is too precious!
