Chris will be blogging here shortly with a full report from his trip. In the meantime...here are some photos I think are pretty amazing. Just cute kids doing cute stuff.
Carter would eat bread and jam 24/7 if we let him. Here he is eating his third piece of bread and jam. The jam is fresh from Grama Trudy's kitchen.
Cole's 7th birthday morning
Silly kid.
Cole is working on a project at school and this is Flat Stanley. There's an entire story behind this and Chris will share it with you. Chris took Flat Stanley on his trip with him so Flat Stanley has made a nice jaunt from Butte, MT to Salt Lake City, UT to Chicago, IL. Not too bad for Flat Stanley.

Flat Stanley traveling with Chris. Notice...Flat Stanley even has a water bottle to stay
hydrated in the car.
Cole practicing his song.
When Chris came home....he brought the kids oodles of Notre Dame presents. Here are the kids with their lunch buckets from the campus lunch he enjoyed with Grandma LeeAnn as well as a few special Hot Wheels.
Even with all the special Notre Dame gifts Chris brought home...the kids were still happier to see their Dad than they were to see presents.
