Christmas Vacation

We went to visit my sister and her family in Ontario for 10 days. It was so fun to see their new house, and for the kids to spend a lot of time with their cousins.

Kepler spent most of the plane ride like this, he was so excited to be on an airplane!

Eating the pomegranate faster than I can peel it

Playing Hullabaloo

Playing Wii

Samantha had to do homework, boo

Cassandra being her amazing self and making fresh cinnamon buns

Cassandra had her Primary class over for a class party. Jayna just heard the word party and went and put on her fanciest skirt and shoes. Then she was wondering where all the Sunbeams were. But she was still excited for the "party", even though it was eight 12 year old boys eating pizza, haha! She told them "My mom's not sure yet if we're coming back for Easter and Halloween." I told her I was sure that we weren't coming back, but I wish we could too!

Tobogganing!

Brett, Jenny and Milo came to visit for a couple days, and I barely got any pictures.
Milo was so cute on the sled!

Playing at an indoor playground

Poor Jayna was kind of miserable, but being a trooper. She had some really bad luck while we were gone with being sick, getting an ear infection, and breaking out in hives all over her body for 4 days.

I was lucky enough to be able to meet up with a bunch of old friends while we were there. I had lunch with Cindy and Jill (but no picture yet).

Dinner with Aleccia, Charissa, Kayley, Janeth (and Alison)

Aleccia and me

Jayna with Aleccia's nephew and baby Ethan, he's such a cute, happy boy, and him and Kepler have the same birthday!

Me, Cassandra and Sami the night before Sami left. I think this was around 1 am and Sami still had to pack and leave for the airport at 6 am.

I still don't have all the pictures yet, but I figured if I didn't post this now, it might never happen. We're so glad we went, it was definitely worth it. But so sad to have the party end!
