Family, family, and more family!!

All of Heath's family were able to make it out to Utah for Grandpa White's funeral and they all stayed in our house! We had 9 extra people staying here Thursday & Sunday nights and 10 extra people on Friday and Saturday nights. I spent all of last week cleaning and making room for everyone once I heard that Grandpa had passed away. Amazingly I think that everyone had a good time and enjoyed themselves while they were here. (Unfortunately we don't have our new sectional for the family room yet - we finally picked one out and ordered it just before New Year's, but it's going to take about 2 months to get it in.) I think the only problems we encountered were lack of sleep from staying up too late talking, watching movies & playing games and Clark taking a few spills down our stairs (luckily they are short flights of stairs and are carpeted so I think he was more scared than hurt). All of the kids played well together - and the adults did too. It was fun to see everyone again despite the sad circumstances and see how much all the kids have grown. I also enjoyed catching up on everything that has happened recently and hearing everyone's plans for the near future. Take care everyone until we see you again!

P.S. - I think I'm ready to veg out on the couch in front of the T.V. for the next week...
