Christmas 2013!

The 2013 Christmas Jammies photo.  (dont look to close Grant is coverd in hives)

Christmas has been a blast this year.  This is Rex's first Christmas where he really is getting it all and having a blast.  The list making, advent calendars secular and religious, Christmas school programs and parties, the anticipation of the big day, the getting and giving gifts, all of it has been fun to watch him experience.  Grant is just enjoying "nice kids" aka cousins to play with and some new toys.

First we had a blast in Greenville with the Stahr Klan!Then we had a blast at our house on Christmas day and them spending the night too! Next we headed to Kansas for more Christmas and New Years fun!  I would just like to apologize up front to the Rowland contingent for no pictures!  Opps.  I guess I was on to much of a vacation while I was there and wasn't taking pics.  Rex and Grant got tons of cousin time and we got to see everyone while we were there.  Grant got to go feed the cows for the first time which he really enjoyed and would like to do more of because he was even going to the back door after we got and saying "feed cows" the first day we were back.  The boys did some of their best van traveling there and back we could ask for.  It was a great visit and end to the holiday season.
