Santa found us!!!

Thanks a tons to my SIL, Maria, I finally have some Christmas pictures that prove I was actually there. She took some great pictures for me. I don't know whats going on with my camera, but my pictures now have lines. We had a great day, Grandpa and Grandma Rowley came with Matt, Mike and Maria, to watch the kids open their gifts. They were truly spoiled, Abby got a DS, Nate an Imaginext jungle with all the animals, and Leah, a very cute rocking chair, and dollhouse. We spent the morning at home, and then went the G & G Rowleys to watch them open their gifts. We had a great breakfast. and played some Rock Band with Richs family, and then headed back home to get dressed. The kids each picked a toy, and then we went to my parents house, to see what they got. It was perfect timing, because my brother was on the phone when we walked in the door. He only has 7 month left on his mission in Kentucky. My sister wasnt able to call, because she is still in the MTC in Argentina, and they don't permit them to call from the MTC. But it was great to talk to my brother, and the kids had fun playing with all their new toys. We spent the day playing games, and then headed home in a very bad snow storm. What usually is a 30 to 40 minute drive from their house became 2 hours. We had the windows rolled down to see the sides of the road. We stopped and helped some people out of a snow bank, and continued on our way. We made it home safe and sound, and spent the evening watching a movie together. We had a great day, and all were very spoiled!
