Presidents Day and Valentines

Here are a few pictures of our President's Day Weekend that we spent in Idaho Falls. We were feeling pretty brave and missing family we hadn't seen in a long time and so we took four-week old Charlie, Anna and Max up for the weekend in our new van. It was a surprisingly relaxing trip, even with a newborn, and it was so nice to have a change of pace for a few days and lots of people to entertain our kids and hold and hold the baby.

We were there for Valentines Day so we brought along some very attractive cupcakes to celebrate. . .
Anna also made a valentine hat for herself and one for Max. Nice sister.


I forgot to pack my camera and even though I realized it just a few minutes after we left we were NOT about to go back for anything. So here are a few pictures from Taylor's iPhone of us hanging out at grandma and grandpa's house. (Praise the iPhone!)

Max goes straight for the puzzles at grandma and grandpa's. He is a puzzle maniac. Not to brag, but he is pretty amazing at them actually. I am thankful that there is some activity that he will sit still for.

Charlie made some good buddies while we were there. Here he is with Great Grandpa Hal (Davis).
And another buddy--Uncle Casey.

Anna organized a complicated game of catch and was in heaven with how many fun grown ups there were who were willing to play with her.

As I've said before--we are very, very thankful for our families and think that being together is the best fun!
