Christmas in Kansas 2009!

Even though we were about to move, we had already gotten our tickets to go to Kansas for Christmas with Adam's family. So we left December 21st and came back on the 31st. We had such a good time. We didn't worry about anything that was going on and just had a fun family vacation. All of Adam's family was together except for Andrew his little brother who is on a mission. The girls loved playing with all there cousins. We shopped and had lots of good food. Unfortunately while we were there I was pregnant sick and threw up everyday. Then everyone else got sick with throwing up and diarhea, so Adam and the girls also got it. Adam had it the worst, thankfully the girls each threw up a few times and then were done. Ellie threw up at 1 o'clock in the morning christmas day but by the time we woke up to open presents she was fine. Thank goodness.
On Dec. 23rd we went to see Ross(my brother) and Lindsays and there two boys. It is so nice they live in Kansas City and we can see them whenever we go visit Adam's family. We went with them to Lindsay's family party and had such a good time, the girls loved playing with there cousins Braden and Cashel.
We also met them one day for shopping and eating out. I love spending time with them and will be so happy we are only 2 hours away so we can see them more often.
On Christmas eve Kansas City had one of the worst blizzards it had seen in years. So we spent the day inside and out of the freezing cold. The girls did venture out once for about 10 minutes but then they got to cold and were ready to go back in the house. It snowed so bad that some of Adam's family couldn't get out of there driveways to make it in time to open presents with us christmas morning. But were all able to get together that night. It was a really good christmas.
We also went one day to Manhattan to see where we will be moving to and actually really liked it, so I am excited.
