Great Grandma's 85th Birthday

We were able to celebrate with Grandma for her 85th Birthday!

The kids kept busy by making cards for Great-grandma, which she LOVED!

Snow Much Fun

The weather was so nice at Nana and Papa's we had to take advantage of it!  The kids also went ice fishing but I didn't venture out with my camera to get a picture of that!  ;-)

When they were all done they had a snow family of five! 

Nothing like warming up with some hot chocolate and marshmallows!  

Christmas Day

Finally we got to Nana and Papa's Christmas day!  Nana had a giant present wrapped up in the middle of the living room.  Everyone was trying to guess who's it was.  Finally she let the kids open it and inside she hid all the gift for the kids.  They got a big kick out of that!

Thanks again everyone for the great time, great food, and GREAT company!  You know it can get pretty wild with these kiddos running around, but they sure make life worth living!!  XOXO

All the grandchildren.

 
And of course we need a CRAZY pic! . . . this is more like it!

Christmas Morning

Yup, Santa left us the loot again this year!!!  Must have been good?!?!

Christmas Eve

After church we headed over to our uncle and auntie's house.  Miss E started the evening out with some Christmas songs from her piano book.   

We were even able to get some quick family photos before it was time to eat and then open presents!

PRESENTS!!!

It was a great night!  So much to be thankful for!!!
