Well, I am finally going to put pictures up of Christmas and New Years. As everyone knows I was in Colorado visiting my two sisters Lauren and Vauna. They are both younger than me and have children, yes I know so does everyone else. I stayed at my sister Lauren's house in Highlands Ranch with her husband Jeremy and their two chillies-Madeleine and Catherine, plus she was on bed rest, so the rest of us were as well. Not really, we did get permission from her Doc, to take her out a couple of times. She was sick at times due to the medicine she had to take every 2,3 and 4 hours. (makes me want to have kids-just kidding) My sister Vauna lives in Ft. Collins about and 70 minutes north of Highlands Ranch, and we went up there once. My brother Ryan had gotten there a few nights before me and then our parents flew in on Christmas Eve. It was so much fun, except for Ryan who had a splitting toothache, ended up going to the Emergency Dentistry Hospital and had to be put on mega drugs until he was able to get a root canal when he went back home. It was so painful to watch him in agony every day.










We all stayed in one house and were up late almost every single night watching movies or playing wii, which let me tell you, I beat the pants off almost everyone there playing tennis, hahaha. My sister Lauren was really suppose to be on bed rest, and it killed her, but everytime she got up her daughter who is 3 told her that she was going to tell jeremy and she was going to get in trouble or she was constantly telling her" now mom, you are suppose to be laying down, I am going to tell Dad and your are going to be in BIG TROUBLE, or it was "wait a minute mom, just wait-you are suppose to be on bed rest." It was histerical, what a character she was. One day, we were discussing the size of Laurens belly when my brother pulls his shirt up and we compare..another funny moment. His was bigger then my sisters-of course he was blowing it out. Here are a few of the pics. Oh yeah, and some of the highlights were hot tubbing, and going to the temple with my nieces in their dress up clothes.





One more thing, I went to Colorado for some snow and the only day we got snow was the day before I left..what a crock, it was about 50-70 the whole time I was there. BEAUTIFUL.
