The weekend before Christmas we travelled to Kansas for a long Christmas vacation. We managed to spend at least 4 days each with Michael's family and my family. We had a really good visit, but opened way too many presents. In fact, we couldn't stuff everything into our car! Poor children (tongue in cheek), they will have to wait until mid-February when my parents visit to see the rest of their Christmas gifts.
Some of the highlights of our trip to Kansas:
Sophia & Bubbles Grandma got all gussied up to go see the Nutcracker Ballet.
We celebrated Nicholas' & cousin Cole's 1st Birthdays ... a little early. And also Great-Aunt Toni's B-Day - I won't mention her age:)
It was almost the Christmas that Aunt Allison "lost" Great-Grandma & Great-Grandpa, but Great-Grandpa Mike found his way to the restaurant without the aid of directions or a cell phone!
It was soooo cold outside that my bottle of benadryl froze in the car overnight!
Then a few days later we had 70 degree weather and hail overnight.
We got to visit with our friends Dawn & Matt and Ron & Mary Kate. Good times all around!
We got to celebrate my nephew's successful potty training with a Potty Party at ChuckECheese.
Nicholas developed the pincher grasp.
Below are some photos from the trip:
