We spent a wonderful Christmas in Idaho at the Tamarack Resort, which is about 2 1/2 hours north of Boise. My mom flew in from Oregon, Abby (Jill's sister) flew in from Chicago. Michael and Jill and Olivia and Jill's mom and dad, Helen and John, drove up from Boise. We rented a car and arrived at about 7pm Saturday evening, the 22nd. It was quite a scary drive, dark and snowing for about the last hour and a half of the trip. Luckily we were in an all-wheel drive Chrysler Pacifica, and it did just fine.
We rented a beautiful 4-bedroom chalet where we were nice a cozy and could look out at the snow. Most of the time we sat around in the chalet and played games--Sequence and Mexican Train. Some of us (not me!) went skiing and snowshoeing.
Olivia got lots of fun presents but had the most fun playing with the wrapping paper.
We came home on Wednesday evening, and unfortunately, Chris had to work Thursday and Friday. I took the rest of the week off and will go back next week on the 2nd. It is so nice to have 11 days off! I'm working on clearing out the craft room to make way for babies!
Happy New Year, Everyone!
