We're Back!

So, immediately after my last post, we got a call from our friends in Texas (Eric and Sara Bahr) inviting us to meet them at her parents cabin in West Yellowstone Montana! Of course, we said, "Sure!". It was so nice to get out for a while. Of course, a vacationing with a newborn isn't the perfect vacation, but it was a nice change of scenery, and the kids had a blast. I got a real treat however. In order to save gas money on the Suburban, Jared offered to drive himself and the oldest 4 in his company car, and have me and Susannah FLY! I actually couldn't appreciate how great a deal that was for me because I was so sure Jared would strangle them all before we met up, but I was seriously impressed with his endurance! Susannah was perfectly behaved on the plane (both ways) and I even managed to get through "TWILIGHT" on the trip!

Things have been extrememly busy since we got back, so I haven't had time to do a thorough unpacking, which means I need to find the card so I can download pics when I get them. Funny thing, the whole vacation I only took one pic of Susannah, because she was usually just sitting in her carrier or asleep while the kids did activities! Of course, lately, the camera has been working overtime in her behalf, so I suppose it helps balance things out a bit.

I'm still amazed that Jared made it home alive (as well as the kids)! That was a HUGE treat for you.
