On our way! For the trip we bought a set of 2 portable DVD players and they were great to have! It was our first time driving in the van too and it was great. We had a good amount of room and it was fun to sit in the back and watch a movie with the girls. Ashlyn and Brinley got along great. Brinley likes to hold our hand when she gets fussy in the car. Ashlyn was a great sister and held her hand to make her feel better.
Grandma Martinson left her dentures out again...
LATE NIGHTS!
Claire got to meet her cousins and aunts uncles. Sawyer enjoyed her company.
Ashlyn, Brinley and I (Derek) went and had fun at a park!
Watching "The Snowman" cartoon movie. One of my personal favorites during Christmas.
A great gift! Papertowels cut in half so I don't have to rip them in half on my own! (Tammy's way of making fun of me for being a cheapskate.)
Fun at Granny's house!
Christmas Eve Jammies!
New princesses!
Ashlyn's initial reaction was too thrilling when she opened this doll from Grandma Martinson. She was expecting a bow and arrow like Merida (Brave).
Although she warmed up to the doll as soon as she saw Brinley playing with hers.
We all know that the best toys are actually just the packages that the toys came in.
Ashlyn has enjoyed wearing her new outfit to gymnastics and dance!
Grandma Martinson never passed up an opportunity to hold Claire. (Even though she was spit up on several times.)
New dress ups!
Baby Claire's blessing day!
Martinsons
Granny and Gramps Williams
Great Grandma and Grandpa Robertson
Williams and Robertson Great Grandparents
Claire met her cousin Amberlin!
Whenever Claire stops breathing, Brinley is quick to start mouth to mouth resuscitation!
Brinley sure missed Amberlin.
Never passing up an opportunity to be the star of the show! Our little performer!
Tea Party at Nana's with Frozen cupcakes!
"Wow! What did you put in this punch!?"
New Year's Eve! Tammy put together a basket full of fun prizes that we could choose after winning different "Minute to Win it" type challenges. We had a blast!
Ashlyn loved getting violin tips from Aunt Maren!
Sledding at Peteetneet school in Payson.
Aubrey was so nice to pull Ashlyn around!
My Love Gift to Trevor this year!
He wore it to Chic-Fil-A!
And even approached two girls and asked for their numbers! What a dude!
Ashlyn listening to David and Maren sing and play guitar.
Ashlyn loved spending time with Nana.
Trevor with baby Claire.
I couldn't find the girls one Sunday afternoon until I went downstairs to Uncle Trevor's room!
Grandpa's favorite Christmas gift?
Of course! He loves his granddaughter!
We were spoiled with gifts! We barely fit everything in the van on the way home! Thanks to all our family who made the visit so fun!
Unfortunately we ran out of gas on the way home! The GPS said there was a gas station coming up soon and it turned out that it had been closed down for years. We didn't have enough gas to get to the next gas station so we opted to use the remaining gas to keep the car warm while we waited for help. We have Triple AAA roadside assistance. It took 3 hours but they did come. There was another guy who actually came with gas right about the same time. He actually called me later that night to make sure we made it to our destination safely. So kind! And thank goodness for those DVD players!
Home Again!
