Early Christmas with the Carters

It is really great having such cute kids because then their grandparents just can't get enough of them! As such, the Carters decided to come share Christmas with us the week before Christmas. They flew to SLC, we drove to Sandy and made a weekend out of it!



It was going to be this absolutely fabulous weekend full of fun and adventures and dates with free babysitting and temple square. Unfortunatley it ended up looking like this:
That's a pretty good smile considering I felt so sick and so much piercing pain in my stomach that bed turned out to be the only option. Wait, I take that back. We did make it to the mall, where Eric was able to get his very best Christmas gift:

Aren't those pretty? And they feel amazing. I put them on just to see what Eric was so excited about, and oh baby...I wish I played more basketball!
Later on as I slept Grandma took the kids to Target and let them pick out their presents. They got great gifts and played their little hearts out at the hotel!

Although it wasn't ideal to get sick, it was a blessing to be with 3 extra helpers (Molly, our niece came too!) I never had to worry about the kids! Thanks Carters, we are so happy you came to see us!!
