Here’s Part 1 and Part 2.

Finally, I present to you a few videos from our trip, full of cute children doing cute things.  How could you not want to watch them all?

#1: I interview the girls about their ice-cream flavor preferences and convince Mark that’s it’s OK to walk on snow.

#2: I decline a potentially-dog-pee-contaminated “ice-cream cone” but clearly this does not bother Clara.

#3: My children learn how to build a snowman because clearly they haven’t had enough practice.

#4: We put nine kids together at Nana’s house, including 5 first cousins and two second cousins, and of course, we get chaos.

#5: With some help, the children manage to walk around the living room in an intact “train”, in age order.

#6: Clearly Mark needs to work on his “all fall down” timing.

Our apologies to Grandpa, Auntie Katie, Auntie Meggan, and cousins Ezra, Selah, and Noah who somehow managed to evade my camera.  We loved seeing you too!

Thanks for a wonderful trip, family!  We love you all!
