We decided to drive up to Flagstaff for the day-4 1/2 hrs.(yes, crazy) we went sledding for a couple hours and turned around and came home. The last time that we were there was when I was 1 month from giving birth to Cody. We went to the same place which you have to drive a mile on a dirt road filled with potholes. Well, as all of you who have been pregnant can imagine how much fun that was and there were no bathrooms to be found so I had to find the nearest tree ( I don't think I hid very well) Of course, now they have bathrooms and concession stands, go figure. We had so much fun. Even Caitlin was laughing with all the snow spraying in her face and crashing at the bottom of the hill. She kept trying to make the sleds go by herself. She is a brave one. Cameron wanted to take on the big hill with daddy. They marched all the way to the top but changed their minds when they looked down and opted for a smaller one. It's a good thing since somebody got taken away in an ambulance.
Since it is nearly impossible to find winter gear in tucson our friends were kind enough to let us borrow the kids snowpants and sled. Coming from Minnesota, it is so crazy to me to have to borrow winter stuff. Hopefully, I will be on the ball for next year and order early.
Kris had 4 days off of work for christmas and we enjoyed every day with him that he was home. It seemed to go by to fast though. We look forward to having him home for 3 days over New Years.
