Wow, so I've been dreading this post because I've got so much to write about - but I'm going to keep it short. We went to Utah for 2 weeks for my sister's wedding and Christmas. I was so happy to have all of the family see Nicole (and give me some free time away from her), but the flights were not my favorite thing ever. It didn't help that she was sick on both flights. Ugh.
It was so much fun to have everyone in town for the holidays. It was pretty funny because we were all on different time zones (Japan, Ireland, Philadelphia, Denver, and of course, Utah) so we had people awake and asleep at all hours of the day. It was crazy chaos with 20 people sleeping in the house at one time, but it was a blast.
Megan and Andrew got married on December 20, and as is only appropriate, they had a hopping reception with a celtic band and Irish dancers. We even got to learn the dance "The Siege of Ennis." All of Andrew's family flew over for the wedding so it was fun to have everyone there. They're having a celebration in Ireland this week and I want to go so bad!
The rest of the holidays were spent back and forth between Alex's parents house and my parents house. Christmas was a ton of fun and we got some great presents. Alex spoiled me with a digital SLR camera! Nicole enjoyed being with all of her cousins and aunts and uncles and grandparents. I had a hard time leaving knowing I would have to keep her as entertained as she was while she was there. We had such a great time being back in Utah and, for now, it still feels like home.

Great pics! Is Nicole the first grand-daughter?
After such a long vacay I feel like I'm learning motherhood all over again - no relatives to constantly amuse my daughter!
Nicole is adorable in that black and white polka dot dress!
Looks like you had a great time. I bet that is so fun to have all your family together! Nicole is so cute!
Megan looks great - tell her congrats! What a fun time for your family. Next time you come out you'd better NOT be sick so can hang out!! I want to see cute Nicole!
