On the second leg of our vacation, we visited the Pratt house in Utah. It was really great to be back in Utah, to see the beautiful mountains, be around great people, and visit with family. It really made us miss living in Provo. How could anyone not love living here! We had some delays and change of plans to get down there but we finally did and were able to see Jen and Jared for a day. Natalie loves to see Madeline and Aliza. We got to meet little Rachel who has the cutest smile. Joe and Liz were there, and John and Lisa and the boys were there too. We arrived New year's eve and partied on down till the wee hours of midnight-thirty. Then most everyone went to bed, though some stayed up to play games and talk. We can't say how great it is to see and be with family you love.
As an aside, we also saw many of our dear friends. Among them was the Gibsons. Adam was one of Mike's old roommates and has been in Iraq for the last year. We finally got to meet Kennedy and they met Natalie for the first time. It was really good to see them. We will post pictures later (we didn't have our camera and Trace took the pictures so we're waiting until she posts them...hint-hint , wink-wink, nudge-nudge Trace ;) The Gibsons are the best and really treated us well while we were with them. And Adam, thanks for serving our country.

We had another session of opening gifts for those who weren't there for Christmas. It was mayhem and happiness all in one. Thanks for the gifts!
