Super long Christmas post

We had a wonderful Christmas! We got to spend a week in Utah visiting family and friends. It was a little scary at first because of all the snow - we didn't know if our flight would be cancelled - but we made it with only a couple hours waiting in the airport and on the plane before take-off. We had a blast and we were so busy! I took TONS of pictures, hence the extremely long post. There's just so many great pictures from the week that I had to share. And they have all loaded in reverse order so here's our trip, starting from yesterday and ending before Christmas. Enjoy! Above, is Carter's new favorite ball (from grandma and grandpa) with his feet inside while in the bathtub.

We traveled back home yesterday and Carter had a fever all day long. Here he is with all the blankets he gathered to snuggle with.


And here's the Christmas miracle. Dennison and Carter both fell asleep on the plane!

My mom, me, Carter, Annie, and Jude. Dain took the picture and little Price was sleeping.

Carter loved grandma and grandpa's big bathtub!


My cute little nephew Liam helping Carter at the Bean Museum

Carter fell asleep in the car on the way to the museum so he still wanted his blanket while checking out the animals. Notice his sweeeeeet boots, they will make several appearances throughout the post. They're the first shoes he has that he can put on all by himself and so he does every chance he gets. So cute. And so funny.

Carter not liking his snow clothes. He looks like an eskimo baby.

Carter in grandma's shoes. One of them is backwards, ha ha!

My little cousin Megan got a new kitten for Christmas. That was the turning point for Carter on Christmas night. There was a lot of unfamiliar people when we first walked into my grandparents house and Carter would not let me put him down.... until he saw the kitty.

There was plenty of foosball played throughout the week. I'm pretty sure I'm still undefeated:)
