It's time to Relax

The last 3 years we have taken Chris's mom up to my parents condos for her birthday. It's a fun way to celebrate her birthday and to get away right before the holidays. We decided to go up for 3 nights, and we had a blast. The only problem was that we did nothing but lay around and eat. It's a blast while we are doing it, but then when I got home and tried my levi's on, ummm...a little tight. Oh well, it was worth every single calorie. Isabella was so excited because she got to wake up in the morning to grandma and grandpa and aunt's and uncles, and she thought that was really cool. I had to include a couple of the pictures that I took of her up there. She was so excited, I think the pictures say it all. We went down to the Gateway mall on Saturday night for dinner and to walk around. There was a little bit of snow falling, and all of the Christmas lights were beautiful. The only problem was that I dressed Isa up in a long sleeve onesie, then a really heavy sweater, then a really heavy coat, and then a big blanket. She was trying to sit up in her stroller and I had a flashback of the Christmas Story. Poor little thing couldn't put her arms down.




All good things must come to an end. A weekend of no laundry meant coming home and catching up on laundry. I was sooo stressed this week because I was in charge of the Relief Society Christmas dinner and program on Wednesday night. I had so much anxiety Tuesday night I think I could have ran a marathon. My husband has been the most patient and helpful person this week. I appreciate all that he does for our little family. Thanks Chris, I don't know how I got so lucky! Now that the Relief Society dinner is behind me, I think I'm going to just enjoy spending lots of time with my husband and babe. The perfect gift fot the holidays!
