Well, now its back to reality - meal making, crying kids, happy kids, playschool, bed peeing and house cleaning etc... Although, I do have to say that Chris did a wonderful job keeping the house clean! I was so impressed. The carpet was vacuumed, the floor swept and rooms picked up and dishes not spilling out of the sink. He did such a great job having the boys to himself for 5 days. I'll encourage him to write a post about it. Even I'd love to hear the details again (Church was pretty... exciting to say the least)
I had such fun with my sisters, Tiff, Sarah, & Radene and my mom in PA, NJ, and NYC. Highlights include: hours and hours of talk time, yummy gourmet food, pool and hot tub (don't tell my doctor... it was less than 5 min, I promise), sandy ATLANTIC beach, more gourmet food, sleeping in, recent Masterpiece theater Emma, a bit of marzipan, apple chips (!!), Driving through NYC, learning the subways in NYC, street shopping, Broadway show WICKED, even more gourmet food at the Russian Tea Room, carriage ride through central park, blizzard treat, more Emma, more sleep, sacrament meeting, more hours and hours of talk time, getting lost because we were talking so much, fun family/birthday time with my almost 30-year-old brother Justin and his cute kids Dylan, Carter and Lynae, facial, games, and back massages. Sheesh, thats just the condensed version. All the pictures I have are from our day at the beach, in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ. I'll have to get more from my sisters.

Oh my gosh it sounds like an amazing trip. I can't imagine spending 5 days away from the kids. It would probably be...amazing :) I'm so glad you got to get away!!

I'm so glad that you had such a great break! and now back to all the drudgery and joy of daily life.
So Fun! That is so great for you to get away, and quality time with mom and sisters is the best. Tell Chris we are curious about his story
Sounds like such a blast! Did you feel like you couldn't WAIT to get a vacation and then you actaully missed your home life towards the end? That seems to happen when you are a mommy :) Love your cute pregnancy picture! So, did you like Wicked!?
