New Year's In Missouri

Last Monday we flew to St Louis to see Bob's folks for the Holidays. We overslept and nearly missed our flight but thankfully we got on the plane just as they were about to take off (literally)! Reese did great on the plane and was very easy to entertain during her first plane ride.


When we landed Bob's parents were waiting for us at the airport and it was no surprise that our luggage didn't make it. We hung out for awhile at the airport waiting for our luggage before heading to Columbia where Bob's parents live.

When we got there Bob's sister and her family came over to open presents. After a long day of travel and no naps Reese actually went to bed before presents so we saved hers for the next morning.

It took her three days to open all her presents! We just let her open them whenever she wanted and then she would get distracted and go play with something else.

Mimi (Bob's mom) watches his two nephews during the week while his sister teaches school. Since the kids are at her house so often Mimi has tons of toys! Seriously it was like Toys R Us!



We spent the next few days hanging out with family and playing with all the toys. Bob's Aunt and Uncle, cousin and his family came to see us one night. After another day of not napping much, Reese went to bed early that day as well..therefore no pictures.

On New Years Eve we all went out to dinner and then came home so Reese could go to bed before ringing in the New Year. They were passing out noisemakers at the restaurant and Reese thought this one was a lot of fun:)

Mimi got these funny masks for all the girls to wear on New Year's Eve.


Mimi also gave me one of my favorite Christmas gifts this year....Reese's little hood and a matching scarf for me..aren't they cute:)



We flew home on New Year's Day. Unfortunately for us and those around us Reese was NOT HAPPY on the flight home! Yikes!!

Nonetheless we had a fun visit with the family. Mimi had to ship all the presents to Dallas because they wouldn't fit in our suitcase so Reese and I are anxiously awaiting the arrival...it will be like Christmas all over again:)

Happy New Year to Everyone!
