Manti

We dropped Todd off at the airport two days after Christmas. It was hard because we had such a great two weeks and I miss him when he is gone! We packed the car the night before so we could head to Manti after we dropped Todd off. I have learned that is is always easier to keep busy and be with family (if possible) after Todd leaves because then it takes the kids and my mind off of him leaving. We had a pretty good drive. We were stopped for an hour due to accidents but other then that the roads were good. I met Lelanya on the way for lunch. We went to a Thai place and it was delicious. It was also goodd to see Lelanya. It has been too long!
Travis and his family were in Manti for a couple of days so we got to hang out with them some more. Plus we got to stay with Typhena and Jesse. It was great to spend so much time with them. The kids have played all week great with their cousins. Travis and Jesse took the kids hooding and they had fun. Typhena, Jesse and I took the kids to the New Years Eve dance which the kids absolutely loved. Billy was shy and didn't want to dance but we had fun playing games in the game room. Johnny only wanted to dance with Typhena and Ellie loved dancing and running around. It was a nice way to spend New Years with the kids. Now we are getting ready to head back to Colorado Springs. We will miss the family here!
