New Year's In Idaho

The Monday following Christmas we head to Idaho to visit Joseph's family. We were glad we got to see so many of them. We were afraid they might be headed back home before we arrived. Thanks for hanging around a little longer! They even waited for us before doing the family gift exchange. Thank you. You all are so thoughtful. We had a great time visiting and eating fantastic food. There was so much of it. We played games and rang in the New Year with much pomp and ceremony. Well, actually we played games and snacked until midnight then opened up the front door to let in the new year and smooched our honeys. :-) I've included pictures of some of the kids making a gingerbread house. We bought it before Christmas but never got around to making it. So, we brought it with us. It didn't taste very good. It has sort of a rancid flavor and tasted like too much cinnamon and not gingerbreadish at all. I guess that's what we get for buying a premade one. That's okay. The kids managed to devour all the candy from it moments after the pictures were taken. They enjoyed making and eating it!
