Merry Christmas!

I know that I am a few days late....
Our family was blessed enough to visit my family this year for Christmas. We try to alternate holidays to keep both sides happy. =0) This year was special because my sister Jamie and her little family flew out to visit too! Since Jeremiah had duty on Christmas Eve, we had a whirlwind of a 48 hour visit with my family before needing to be home for Jeremiah's duty day. It was nice to take it easy a little bit once arriving to PA. I needed my license renewed (joy of having a Dec birthday!) so we spent early Friday morning trying to get that straightened out. I am happy to announce we were in and out within a half hour! YAY! I got to go to the outlets to do a little shopping (found next year's Christmas dresses at OshKosh for $9 each)! Then of course went to Walmart to scout out potential great deals in the Christmas "leftovers". We hit terrible traffic on the way home Saturday and decided we would take a break from the monotony by stopping at IKEA to look around. That was the first time we've been in our ENTIRE lives. So, we definitely had fun and walked out with a few small items. All in all, the trip took 7 hours when it should have taken 4 1/2. That found us home about 10:30 pm still needing a small trip to somewhere that was open that late at night for a bit of milk. We were pretty exhausted. Overall, we had fun. I'll post a few pictures of our small family "photo shoot" in PA later when I get on my computer and mess with my camera. Stay tuned!
