Christmas

Christmas Eve was spent over at Austin's Aunt's house this year. We enjoyed food, family, and fun there. We played Chinese Auction and all got a fun gift. Then Carmen made felt puppets of the nativity story that the kids got to act out. Makayla got to play Mary. We opened a family game there as well. When we got back to Grandma and Grandpa's house, all our kids got to open their Christmas PJs, and then it was off to bed so that Santa could come.

Christmas morning started early with Makayla being the first one awake. Santa found us at Grandpa and Grandma's house, and he was super nice to us! He brought us a Wii with all the accessories. Holden thinks he is a pro with the guitar! We opened a few more presents from our family before heading off to Aunt Jana's for brunch and more family mingling.

When we got back to Grandma and Grandpa's, we hung out, played with our new toys and took naps. Christmas afternoon, all of Austin's siblings came over and we opened presents from Grandma and Grandpa. They spoiled us, of course - Thank You!!

We were having so much fun hanging out with Austin's siblings, we decided to sleep over another night. We were up late playing with the Wii and having fun being together! Holden didn't sleep at all that night, though, so the next day was a rough one for all.

We had a great time being with Austin's family this week, and now we get to head to MN to see my family next week.
