Oregon, 4 year Anniversary and Skipper

We were able to spend Christmas in Oregon with my family this year. That hasn't happened since 2005, so I was pretty excited!! We had great food, went to the coast, and stayed up way too late playing games every night. We drove out on monday the 22nd, and it took 18 hours to get there since we were in a snow storm almost the entire way. The drive home only took 13 hours, and we were so excited about that. Madeline was a trooper on both trips and didn't cry at all!! She loved playing with her cousin Levi, and with her aunts and uncles. We went to the coast one day because Skipper needed fish and chips. It was freezing so stayed on the beach for about 2 minutes. We were also able to see my new little niece's baby blessing.

On monday the 29th we drove back and that day just happened to be our 4th anniversary. It was probably the best one EVER!! Okay so not really, but at least we got to spend the whole day talking, and being with each other. Yesterday Skipper surprised me with 2 dozen roses, and a movie to watch while he abandons me for 5 days. I then had an OB appt and they did an ultrasound so Skipper was able to see the babe for the first time. He loved it. We then went to P.F. Changs which I have been craving ever since I got pregnant.

Back to Skipper abandoning me... When Utah's football team made it to a BCS bowl Skipper's father wanted to take his sons and son in laws to the game in Louisiana, so sadly he left me last night. I am very happy for him to go but I sure do miss him, I am sure the hormones are making it worse. I can't wait to see him again on Sunday night!
