Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone!

We started off our Christmas season celebrating with Chrystal's family. We spent the day at April's house. This was the start of many days of unending food! The kids all were excited to open up their presents and had fun playing together. Grandma Linda made all of the kids blankets that had their name embroidered on them.

The celebrations continued with Kevin's family. Kathy and Kirk flew in from China and spent the week with us. The night after they flew in, we had a lot of snow and Ethan, Alex, and Elizabeth couldn't wait to go out and build a snowman. Kirk and Kevin pulled the kids around in the sled, but after several "spills" the boys had enough and wanted to come back inside.

Kevin's mom and dad also flew in from Ft. Myers and spent the holidays with us. Unfortunately Connie's brother (our Uncle Mike) passed away during the holidays, and this made it a tough holiday season for the family. We will miss Uncle Mike dearly!

Santa Claus brought a lot of presents, so the kids must have all been really good this year! Ethan received the 2 presents he asked for from Santa (see video - this is what he wanted from Santa). Nolan didn't quite understand what was going on, but he enjoyed watching the activities of gift opening.
