Christmas 2007 - Colorado Springs, Colorado

As noted in our "Christmas 2007 - Nampa, Idaho" posting, this Christmas we were able to visit both Jentrey's family in Idaho and Dave's family in Colorado.

After returning home from a week long trip to Idaho (four days of it just traveling - the kids were great travelers as always), we returned home to Denver and then drove down to Colorado Springs (about 1 hour South of Denver) to celebrate Christmas with the Potter Clan.

This year, the Potter Clan present consisted of Grandma and Grandpa Potter (we hope they were there since we did hold Christmas at their house...would be kinda fun to kick them out though and take over the place without them there; they'd probably argue that we still took over the place :) ) Grandma and Grandpa Rottenberry, Heather (and herself...still waiting for her to bring home some cute executive with long-term intentions; we love you Heather !!), Chad and Dawn and family, and Dave and Jentrey and family (a.k.a. Us). I actually think this was the first time that Grandma Rottenberry was finally able to meet Adelie...we tried during Thanksgiving but Grandma came down with a bad cold and had to stay home while Paul (Grandpa) came solo and was able to meet Adelie.

Here are some pictures of the day...




























Christmas 2007 - Nampa, Idaho

We were able to spend Christmas with both of our families this year...with Jentrey's family in Nampa, ID and with Dave's family in Colorado Springs, CO.

The trip to Idaho was long, we stopped and stayed in Provo, UT to break up the trip there and back, staying with Chris and Sarah Elwell and family both ways (thank you Chris and Sarah). Spent about three days with Jentrey's family in Nampa (just west of Boise) before turning back around again to come home. The weather was not too bad, had some snow storms here and there, but we were able to use the brand new pjamas that Grandma Pryor gave us (as is the custom for Pryor Christmas). Unfortunately, we did not use our camera that much, so not too many pics to add here...
