Christmas a day early!



This year we got to celebrate Christmas a day early! We were lucky enough to be able to have family over for dinner and had a wonderful day opening presents and just spending time with each other.

Sledding

With a great snow fall, we dug out the sleds and decided to pull the kids around the block. Mom sat in the back of the truck and took pictures. We had some great times and great laughs...only a few tears and wipeouts!

Looking at Lights

Last night we climbed into the car with our mugs of hot cocoa and candy canes in hopes to see some wonderful light displays...and of course for Josh to get some ideas for next year! We had a great time looking at lights, especially one amazing display in the north end. People actually get out of their cars and walk around the driveway of this house to look at everything (of course we joined the crowd and even took pictures!). Crazy! It was great to watch the kids get excited at the beauty of the lights and sing Christmas songs along the way. The poor kids tuckered out after about an hour of excitement! What fun we had!
