Vacation Was (Mc)Call-ing Our Name!

Terry's parents have owned a condo up in McCall for years. It has been tradition for the whole family to go up, but as families grow and move it's hard to get the entire family up there. We have been fortunate enough to go up there for the passed three years. This trip was even more awesome though, because we had TWO weeks up there instead of only one. Terry has been dying to get out and go on a little vacation, and this was just perfect! So, Christmas day we opened gifts, went and visited G-ma and G-pa Jensen, and got on the road! 

Terry and I were stoked to be there, our sweet little boy however, had a bit of a hard time adjusting to sleeping somewhere other than home. We had a couple very long nights, and lots of early mornings, but needless to say we enjoyed getting away. 

As part of the luxuries of this particular condo, they allow you to go to the local gym aka "The Club." We spend most of our time there. Our favorite is to play wallyball (kind of like volleyball but better) and racquetball. Oliver's favorite however was the pool! We have a little fish on our hands. 
Insert Video. Not sure why but the video of Oliver swimming wouldn't upload...

Terry and I were also able to make it up to Brundage for a little snowboarding. It was a beautiful day to go and I wish I had pictures, but I crash constantly (I'm still new) and when Terry does crash it's normally pretty hard, so we decided not to take anything up the hill. We had a blast! 

Anna was able to make it up for Christmas from Michigan and it was her first time meeting Oliver! She was able to go up to McCall also, so Aunt Anna and Baby Oliver got to know each other pretty well. 



We were able to leave Oliver with Grandma and Grandpa Walton and go ice skating with Anna, Tonia, and Lizzy. Lizzy is such a champ, look at her go!




By the end of the trip we were definitely ready to be back home though, especially Oliver, he slept almost 12 hours through the night our first night home. We had a great time in McCall, but nothing beats home!

Christmas

Christmas has come and gone! We went out of town Christmas day for a couple of weeks. Sorry for being so late! Here are a few pictures of Oliver's first Christmas:




Of course, he was more interested in the wrapping paper than any of his gifts! We had a great Christmas and hope you did as well!
