So after a crazy day at work on Friday Nov. 16, we headed on our way to Boise to spend the weekend with Chad's brother, Kreal's family. Not only did we get to spend time with their family but Chad's mom(Janet) and nephew, Derik, met us there too. We ended up getting out of town about 6PM and to our surprise, Collin, Allysa, Landon, and Maycee were still up to greet us!!! Out the two oldest came, just waiting for us to get out of the car! It's so nice to feel wanted. We loved it.
Stacie and Kreal had brought in a queen sized mattress and cleared the floor of Alyssa's room to make us a bed. Derik and Mom Christensen shared the mobile suite (travel trailer) in the drive way. Alyssa crashed in with the boys' room. It worked really great. The 3 oldest kids showed us our bed, by jumping on the trampoline 
(mattress). The really funny thing was that after getting to bed well after 1:30am, 6:00am comes really early. Collin and Alyssa were plotting, in their not too quite voices, how to wake us up. First came the large inflatable ball flying into the room. When no response came from that, they took turns just coming in the door of the room(Of coarse they were giggling the entire time). Then they tried to entice Landon to wake up and let him be the culprit. When he wasn't interested, they continued to come in the doorway inching closer and closer to the mattress. Finally when they got close enough, Chad grabbed them and off they go screaming. Then Stacie and Kreal heard them and that was the end of fun.

We didn't hear from them except for the opening of the door and a cute little note was placed on Chad's chest. It's very classic and just made us laugh. (see the picture) You just have to love kid's as they are learning to write!!! Needless to see the next few mornings were uneventful and I guess they learned their lesson.
