We enjoyed a visit to Grammy and Grampy's in Dallas after Christmas and were able to go to holiday in the park at six flags, relax, eat too much food, sleep in, and Mike and I got to watch way too many movies (oh so fun for us) and most of all just be with people that we love. Though I got (annoyingly) sick over the break I was grateful we were still able to relax and have fun (thanks for taking good care of us!!) We always really enjoy going to visit Grammy, Grampy, Brett, and this year we missed Uncle/Elder Jeff, and the Grants! :( Love you guys!

This is what Savannah does anytime I ask her to smile.
At least Grammy smiles at me :) |

Austin Park n Pizza
To finish off the break we ended with going to Austin's Park and Pizza. Mike won an auction a while back so we got in for a measely $10 each (reg price is more than 2X that!!) and the the girls were free. What we got for $40= Fun filled, exhausting day. We got there at noon and got home at 8:30pm. So we ate lunch, played video games, rock climbed, bumper boated, go carted, mini golfed, rode some rides, did the batting cages, laser tag, ate dinner and played some more video games to finish off the day (hey after all it's all included- so of course we had to get the most bang for our buck!)Phew, it makes me tired just thinking about it. Good day and fun way to end the break.
