The last two weeks were fun!
The kids were so happy to see their dad. We were able to go to the gate to greet him. We were all nervous and excited, and there were lots of tears.
We never ate at the same place twice (we ate out a ton), went to movies, and had a fun night out to ourselves. We went tubing (thanks Steve and Wendy) Up in Midway we went to Soldiers Hollow, it was fun. We had the worlds largest group go down together, and only one wipe out!
Went to a Jazz game (thanks Abe and Kim) It was fun to get together and the kids together with the cousins. We chose to ride Trax to the game and on the way there was fun, on the way back, we were a little tired, and cold.
Went skiing/snowboarding (I will learn to board), We went with Bill, Nikki, Steve, Melanie and met up with Abe and Kim. It was a lot of fun, but I am now determined to learn to snowboard.
Played lots of Rock Band (thanks Bill and Nikki), the only thing I can do is the guitar. I can't sing and the drums are hard. But Josh is a pro. And of course the rest of my family.
Went car shopping (didn't buy one yet) We were very close to buying a Durango. Our van is dying, so for sure when Josh comes home we will get something. But that's for future Josh and Kara.
And had a very Merry Christmas! The best Christmas present we could have had was Josh being able to be there. It makes you realize what is important and what isn't.

Your family picture is so cute. I am so glad that you guys had such a fun time while Josh was here.
We had so much fun skiing and hanging out with you guys. That picture of Josh with the kids in the airport could make anybody cry! Yeah...only a few more weeks. -Kim
Hi Kara! It was so nice to see your family together at church the last couple of weeks! Sounds like you had a perfect holiday! Let the count down begin....
Looks like a lot of fun! That is a precious picture at the airport!
Looks like you guys had a busy 2 weeks. We were sad not to be able to come up and visit, but we'll see you all soon. I'm glad you guys had so much fun, and that Josh will be home soon. Cute pictures too!
I love your new family picture and your new background. That airport picture makes me want to cry! I am so glad you got to have a good Christmas break- Christa
The airport picture choked me up big time - we have one just like it! Bring your kids over to play anytime - I think they all had a really good time! Bring your guitar and we'll kick the kids off Guitar Hero. :)
