We were able to go to Albuquerque to spend New Year's with my family. It was the first time most of my siblings had met Lily.
All three kids were great on the drive; we only had to stop one extra time to feed Lily both ways.
We got to Albuquerque on Monday just in time to see OU bomb their bowl game.
On Tuesday Dale and I got to go to the temple for the first time since Lily was born. That night we went to see the River of Lights. It was frigid and windy and we were glad that Lily stayed at the house with Grandpa.
Wednesday morning Dale, my sister and my mom went skiing up in Santa Fe. Dale came back sore but had lots of fun. It was awesome. Cameron also lost a tooth. He missed singing the song "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth" by less than a week! He was very worried that since the tooth fairy had been in Oklahoma a week previously, that she wouldn't make it to New Mexico in time. Fortunately she did.
We celebrated New Year's eve that night and both boys made it past midnight.
Dale and I stole away on Thursday for a date to Olive Garden. Friday morning we left early and drove to Norman. We spent a few hours there with Dale's brother and drove home late that night.
All in all, we had a lot of fun. It was crowded but we got to spend lots of time with family, catch up, play board games, etc.
