Welcome 2010

I know some of you might be thinking Christmas now new years COME ON Steph get it together. I hope to be all caught up soon, so endure with me. :)
So if you know us and know my side of the family you know if it is going to be a good party we HAVE to have GOOD food. So Robin and I decided that we would have a New Years party at our house, and we were going to have a fondue and fry party. Everyone was supposed to bring something that could be fondued or fried. Really good for ya right. We had SOOOOO much good food. WE dipped anything we could find in Carmel and chocolate fondue, I got out some roads rolls and fried anything from candy bars to the jalapeno poppers Bri made.We played games and ate played the wii and ate, talked and ate. Really it isn't a party unless we are all together and eating. :) I think everyone gained 20 pounds that night. Needless to say the fry daddy got put away and will not be brought back out this year.

New years day was the day Robin had set aside for our little get away. My niece Andria came over to watch the kids, and off we went to the distant land of Rexburg! We stayed at the Americinn in a theme suit. When Robin booked our room he asked them what room had the largest bath tub, and booked that room. I love baths I think they make anything better. If I am sick I go get in the bathtub if I am stressed it is off to the bathtub. In our new house the bathtub is nothing better then a little puddle to sit in so I was WAY excited to go and have a much needed bath. We got to Rexburg check in to our hotel and went to go look at the room and it was a mid evil room it was so neat I wish I would have taken pictures but I didn't take my camera. there was a suit of armor and tons of fabric draped everywhere. And there it was the beautiful bathtub, I could hardly wait.
Robin took me to see the blind side, and we went to craigos. It was so nice to be together and not worry about anything. We knew the kids were in good hands, and we just pretended for a few days that things were all back to normal.
When we got back to the hotel I filled up the small swimming pool and got in and just soaked. This is when we realized that this room was really mid evil. :) The remote wouldn't work so while I lived in the bathtub Robin had to get up to turn the channel. We think the bed was from the mid evil times and filled with straw, it was horrible. Next to the bed was a full suit of armor, as we were laying in bed trying to get to sleep out of the blue Robin says hey do you think I could wear that suit of armor. I started laughing so hard. Then about six the next morning I woke Robin up and asked him what time it was the clock in the room wouldn't work. He told me I just might have time for one more bath. yippee!
This really was the best gift, it was something we both needed. I loved it. Thank you Robin!
