Last Minute Christmas Surprise


We literally decided just hours before we left that we would head to Idaho and surprise my brother and his wife and kids in Idaho. It's about a 9 hour drive and we were originally going to stay home for Christmas at our house. Eric was really sick and we decided that we wanted to be near family for Christmas so we packed up the car and headed out at 4am. We drove through Portland and the drive was gorgeous! Until we hit eastern Oregon and then it was pretty boring.

We stopped at a hotel in Portland on our way back to break up the drive. I only had a few days off so it was a very quick trip. We were so tired! We even brought Maximus. I think this picture says it all. But we did have a lot of fun in Portland.

This is the gang hanging out on Christmas Eve. My other brother Joe and his fiancee Jessica were there too. Nothing beat Tiff's face when she saw us come in the door. They were completely surprised. It was so fun! We had a great time and thanks to Tiff's parents who let us crash their holiday! Don't I have the cutest nieces and nephew?
