Another Christmas!

I have kind of lost track as to what number Christmas we are on! This past week, we got together with Jared's family. His brother, and cousin were in town! So, together with aunts, grandparents and great grandparents we had a great celebration.

The cousins, young and old, had a great time! The littles, had fun with new light sabers, and tons of new toys. Another favorite at Grandpas is to play his Pearl Harbor Flight game. This year, cousin Rob and Lucy gave all the kids marshmallow shooters. They had a BLAST!! And thankgoodness for good weather. They played in the garage and outside!

Abram was so excited to give Grandpa a new toolbox that he had constructed and painted. He thought it would be extra special to build something for Grandpa because he always builds things for others. (Good idea Abe!) When we mentioned it was time for presents, Abe ran for his gift and gave it to Grandpa first. It was fun to see the boys get excited to make and create gifts for others this Christmas.

One of the best presents that the boys got was handmade cars, built especially for each of the boys. They will cherrish them for always.

One thing is for sure. This year we were surrounded by those who love us dearly, and it was nice spending the Holiday with them.
