happy (grand)mothers day!

I just wanted to tell grandma happy mothers day and to tell her thanks.......for all that she has done since I was little. She really helped me to become the person I am today! I didn't have a ton of pictures but these ones just show a little of the things I will always remember. I always thought that all families were just like ours but I realize that they are not.......not everyone knows ALL of their cousins and their wives and their kids and I know that because of grandma and grandpa we have one of the tightest families I know! the cheese balls that grandma brought every year to take down to the beach


I am so glad that I have kids who love to stop and see their grandma great!


even though she had a lot of grandkids she always made me feel special






























she always tries to attend EVERY special occasion....blessings, graduations, weddings, birthdays and if she can't be there she sends a card and lets you know that she is thinking of you!
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY! WE LOVE YOU!

Spring Break and Family Pics

Last month we took a nice little stay-cation to Park City for what was suppose to be Spring Break, but it was snowy and cold most of the time. We still had a really great time with grandma and the whole Greg Christensen clan. We stayed at the Marriott that sits right on the mountain by the Alpine Slides. It was a real shame none of us are skiiers. We could have walked right out of the door and hopped on the lift. Anyway, here are some pics from the trip.

Can you believe this is the first time grandma has ever held a pool stick in her whole life!

On our way home Brandon and I took our kids for family pictures. Here are a few of the results...

How could that kid not put a smile on your face?

I forgot to tell you where these beautiful pictures are from, oops. We spent 8 days in Cancun, Mexico at 2 different all inclusive resorts. Fantastic!! Garrett and Holly left today to go back to Minnisota so it's back to the real world. We love you all Sid and Claire























Hi Christensen Family,
Sid and I had the most incredible vacation Ever! Garrett and Holly invited us to go with them on vaca before they started their family so we found the perfect place for some freezing Minnisotians to enjoy the sunshine, relax and experience some adventure. We just missed the Swine Flu panic and we want to let you know that we are all still healthy and strong, yea!
I'm inviting you all to go with us next time we go, I highly recommend it!!!!! Sid and Claire
