| Christmas Morning |
We enjoyed Christmas several times over this year. We did an early Christmas with the Stahr family at Thanksgiving. Then we did a small family Christmas on Christmas Eve (Will had to work Christmas Eve and Christmas day this year) and then we had Grandma and Grandpa come over and enjoy a meal and of course open presents with us on Christmas day. Then we were off to Kansas to celebrate Christmas with the Rowland Family and enjoy Will's last week of vacation for the year.

Everyone was able to make it to our family get together on Saturday unfortunately Will and Grant both had fevers and didn't feel very good. Will slept almost the entire day and Grant was pretty listless. Even despite feeling under the weather Grant did get to make it out to feed cows with Grandpa Jerry once. (this was very high on his list of things to do, pretty much from the moment we got there he was asking Grandpa when we could feed the cows.) And Will and I got to go on a date to the Olpe Chicken House for dinner. (best fried chicken ever!). Rex had lots of fun playing Mario on Super Nintendo with Hannah for several days of the visit. We headed home with a few days to spare in Will's vacation which was nice to have him around hear all day for a couple days and get a few things done. Grandma Cindy watched the boys and Will and I got to go shopping for a new washer and dryer. The next day we all went out again and continued our search. We found a good deal and got the new set ordered. Im really really excited about getting the laundry out of the garage and in the house! (Post coming soon). New Years ever was pretty quiet around here. We got the boys to bed normal time and Will and I watched a movie. We didn't quite make it till midnight but thats ok.

I think 4 must be one of the perfect ages for Christmas Rex made a list this year and was excited all month long. He can open his own presents now. And oh the excitement. I was really fun to watch him open gifts and be so excited about them.
We felt very blessed this year with our happy healthy boys, and so many people that love us and our boys to Celebrate this season with us.
