Back to College

After the Judy family Christmas party, we stayed the night at Rhett and Claudine's house.  We stayed up until like 1am, so our hopes of attending a 9am church didn't happen.  We needed to drop Coelton off at BYU-I and then get back to Boise so the kids could go back to school the next day. We went to church  at Heather's 11am ward in Rigby.
We drove to Rexburg and went to Coelton's new apartment.  He used to live in 215, now he lives in 205.  He still lives at Nauvoo House.   His apartment was freezing!  He was the first one there, so we cranked up the heat and turned on his oven and baked some otis spunkmeyer cookie dough we had in the car.
We got all of his stuff moved in and set up.  We also went to the store and got him some food, since he doesn't have a car. 
It was time for us to hit the road back to Boise.  We gave him hugs and before we knew it everyone was in tears and it was very hard to say good-bye AGAIN!  It was so good to have him home for 3 weeks.   It was like he had never left.  We love having all the kids home and being a family.  It's not the same with him gone.

We were all so exhausted on the drive back to Boise.  It was a full 4 days!  Hammer/Judy families and taking Coelton back.  I looked in the back seat and saw this freaky thing.  Caden sleeps with his eyes half open.  The girls were crashed too.
