Well, Christmas has come and gone so fast! We had a great time traveling and seeing all of our family, even if for only a short while! First, we went to Iowa. We stayed in a hotel and Frances LOVED swimming! She is such a fish. She also had a blast playing with her cousin Trevor! They are only 5 months apart and got along so well we hardly knew they were there! I enjoyed playing cards (hand and foot) pretty much the entire time I wasn't eating. I am getting good at being the loser and still enjoying the game! Frances really loves her new puppy named "Molly"!
These two pictures were actually taken on the Fisher Price Digital Camera that Frances got for her birthday!
Next stop for us was South Dakota. We got to see many more family members and eat lots more good food! Frances got a doll that she named "Brianna" and it has plastic clothes that snap on and off. She has been really enjoying that toy the most so far! We also got to swim when grandpa Dave visited and stayed at a hotel with a really cool swim area. There was a kids pool and a HUGE waterslide! It was a toss up who enjoyed the slide more, Frances or mommy?

Then it was off to another town in SD to see my younger sister for New Years Eve. Frances instantly fell in love with her lifesize dollhouse. She couldn't even be persuaded to come downstairs and open presents! She played so well by herself for almost two hours! We played Pirates of the Carribbean Monopoly while watching Pirates 3. Not an easy task. I like to think that is why Mitch creamed all of us so badly! My sister made us a fleece tie blanket with the Colts on it! It is my favorite! Go Colts! They had a toddler bed in the spare room with the big dollhouse. Frances slept great in there all night long! Then we were headed towards home as it has been almost two weeks away! We stopped and saw my good friend Karman for an hour. Then we spent the night at Mitch's sisters before the final four hour trip home.
Frances also loved my sisters cat "Kiki"!
The holiday were great. We truly enjoyed seeing everyone and I am certain we will do it again next year but for now...it is good to be home:)
