We were so thrilled that my parents decided to brave the roads and trek down to Texas from Utah. All of us, that is, except this one:
Ha! No, actually she went to Grandpa and Grandma all week without a problem except this one time when everyone was around so I grabbed the camera and said, "
Ok, all the kids sit with Grandma and Grandpa so we can get a picture!" Brooke was less than thrilled. Not sure what was wrong. Maybe she was really tired. The week was a bit of a whirlwind and I can't believe it's already over.
We had one other child who was not happy about the picture taking moment. Actually, she was just fine until we asked her to move to a different spot so everyone would be seen. The result was a sulking Kate who then tried to
sabotage the picture I did take with the rest of the kids. Her hand makes a nice touch, no?
Here they are together minus Kate and her hand. Yes, Brooke was very tired.
We finally got Kate into the picture and here is the end product.
Carli, Brandon, and Grandpa are perfect specimens for a photographer. :) Megan is squinting, Brooke is crying, and my mom is trying to help Kate feel better by squeezing in close to her. Too bad they are not taller. Ha. We always say that Kate got the "grandma genes" which is nothing bad in any way, shape or form--her grandma and
nana are 2 of the most special people in this world--they are just a little on the short side. ;)
We passed some of the time on this day-before-Christmas-Eve by doing puzzles. Kate and
Carli jumped right in with Grandma.
Dinner was pizza-making. Our kids love this and have some mad pizza making skills by now. We make a mean deep dish pizza for the adults with all the good stuff in it. It is killer and we have been making it a lot lately. :)
Up next is Christmas Eve!
