We had a great trip to Maryland for Christmas. We were able to arrive Christmas Eve and spent Christmas with my grandparents, my mom, sister and her family. We had such a great time visiting so many of my family that we hadn't seen since we were married back there in July 2004. We were able to go back and attend the temple, see the lights at the visitors center, and take the older kids downtown to the capital. I will journal more as I post the photos.
The drive was really great! The kids did awesome and it was absolutely perfect weather in such a beautiful part of the country.
The Brenda Cook family...(Chris and his kids were unable to come...we missed them)
Brandon, Maria, Kaden, Brenda, Mady, Sarah, Liz, Danny & David
Sarah just opened her unicorn pillow pet
Sarah on the road trip...she was so much fun;)
My grandmother and mom, Brenda
My Grandparents (Leslie and Jean Cook)..love them so much!
We got to go back to the temple we were married in...so beautiful, wonderful feelings!
Madyson loved getting into Grandma Cook's purse...here she is under the kitchen counter trying to find some "bum" (gum).

Kaden was in love with this train set...(there are so many memories for me as a child in this exact room. It hasn't changed at all...same couch too.)

Mady really was so great during the trip...she got tired on the last day and just wanted to be home, but other than that she was super!
Our little place...we decorated even though we were out of town.
