Christmas Eve & Day

Christmas Eve

We were invited to the Kahlers in Cedar Rapids for the annual Christmas Eve gathering there.  Landon and Owen had both been sick but were fever free for 24 hours so we got to go.  We attended their church's Christmas Eve service at 4:15.  Then back to the Kahler's house for supper.

"May I have a cookie?  Please!"

YUM


New big boxes made into a "fort" in the play room 
Cuddle time - Owen still wasn't feeling well.

Christmas Day
We hosted the Christmas Day gathering.  This is the year that our kids/grandkids are at their in-laws.  We invited my mom & dad, sister Judy and Jim, Aunt Dorothy, and Aunt & Uncle Darrel and Janet.  These are all very special people to us!  Dinner, visiting, watching sports on tv, and playing games consumed our day.  A special visit from my nephew Matt, Bethany and little Kaden completed our day.
