I thought I could share in just one post. I guess two weeks worth of pictures may be to much! Actually we didn't take that many pictures. We were to busy playing, and making sure everyone Wyatt was using a Kleenex.
GaGa was supposed to come in from Finland on Friday the 15th. She had a fabulous time with family overseas. They even stopped by the North Pole! She decided to come here a week early and enjoy some time with the Grandbabies, but of course it snowed. It hadn't snowed here since early November! After a long delay she ended up spending two extra nights in Phoenix. So thankful Aunt Janis was already there to pass the time with!!
James and Lisser were supposed to fly in from Hawaii on Saturday. With all the weather and delays she opted to stay the night in Phoenix with mom and come in on her flight.
Us Carr's had to wait two extra days to see them, it was tough but at least we finally had lots and lots of snow to play in!
Once everyone was finally here cousin time began!
All the kids were so excited to be together, adults were too.
At one point every room was filled to its max here at the "FunHouse"

Of course Wyatt and James were sick when everyone arrived. We took them to the doctor to find out they both had Bronchitis. Wyatt also had a double ear-infection and James was starting to get one too.
So after several days of being cooped up we finally were able to venture out and go sledding on Christmas Eve.

I think Uncle Gray was her favorite to sled with. Somehow he seemed to go the fastest and that was just what Rylie was looking for! She made sure to take a turn with everyone. Even Popeye. Lisser has that picture!

IT was so nice to look at your pictures! Looks like SO much fun. Love the sledding pictures and the fact that Wyatt opened underwear first!! Too funny.....good call on everyone opening TWO gifts that night! Love his vest from grandpa. how special to have the extra room at a condo right down the road (especially since the weather was so bad)! Love that Kim brought mom's tree too! THat was such a cool idea. Best times are when family all gets together!!
