Christmas in Idaho

So after our long trip in Nebraska we took a detour on our way home and stopped at Nate's parents house for their annual Christmas party.  We almost spent new years here.  We had some sparkling cider and went around the circle telling what we were excited for from 2015 and what we are looking forward to in 2016.  After we got the girls to bed, nate and i and his parents and laura and Bruce stayed up late playing a card game and laughed so much it hurt!  I got to see a new side of Laura...it was really funny!  The christmas party was fun and filled with lots and lots and LOTS of game playing!  I learned a new one that was quite fun call puerto rico (which I hope to buy for Nate this next Christmas...shhhh don't tell him).  We also had a fun kid gift exchange where the girls got a nice dress up cape and a glass tea set.  Then we had an adult exchange which was fun...the gifts included mostly from Nate's grandma that recently passed away.  We came home with some fun dishes for entertaining and candles and candy and other goodies.  There was lots of cousin playing and it was a nice relaxing trip to end our long 2 week vacation (although by the end we were very much ready to sleep in our own bed) I didnt get as many pictures as I wanted but I got some:
