New Years In Montana - Part 1

 December 30th, 2010, at approximately 7pm, we pushed the last suitcase in the car, locked the front door, and began driving north.  Back home, back to family and friends, old stomping grounds.  Two hundred photos, fifteen hundred miles, and a million memories later we landed back in our living room.  What a wonderful trip!
 The first few days were spent with my family in Kalispell.  Here we prepare for a New Year's Eve dinner at Mom and Dad's.

 Opening gifts.

Unwinding.

 Ring-around-the-rosie.

Playing house.

Sledding at my sister's.









A good game of Skipbo in memory of Grandma & Grandpa Christensen.

And Farkle has a way of bringing out the smiles.

A trip to Stumptown Ice Den.


I'm so spoiled to have had this wonderful time with my family! Love you all sooooo much! Part 2 coming soon.
