Whirlwind Week

We had quite the busy, but fun week.  On Sunday (the day after Christmas), we drove over to Idaho Falls to have a little Christmas celebration with Andrew's family.  It was a very short trip because Andrew had to be back to work early Tuesday morning.  The drive home was especially quiet because Keagan and Deker stayed in Idaho Falls with Andrew's parents. 

On Thursday afternoon after Andrew got home from work Andrew, Bauer and I headed back to Idaho Falls.  We picked up Andrew's brother and his wife (David & Leah) and began our long journey to Deming, New Mexico to attend the wedding of Andrew's good friend, Marshall.  We arrived in New Mexico around 1:30 pm on Friday. 

On Friday, the brides family had a yummy dinner of Mexican style food.  After eating and talking, we went back to our hotel, put Bauer to sleep for the night and then we rang in the new year playing games in a hotel room with our friends that made it down the for the wedding. 

On Saturday evening was the wedding.  It was a beautiful wedding and reception.  Andrew was asked to be the Best Man.  We enjoyed visiting and dancing the night away. 

Here is the groom along with the three friends that have been friends for years. 

The Beautiful new family.

We got up early Sunday morning, left Deming around 7:00 am and arrived in Idaho Falls about 1:00 in the morning.  We crashed at David & Leah's house, then Andrew got up early to pick up the kids from his parents house because they had to go to work.  We then loaded up and drove home. 

It was a fun and exhausting week.  I missed Keagan and Deker a lot, but I am very grateful that Andrew's parents took them for the week.  It sounds like they had a great time with their grandparents.
