Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone... a bit late. We actually hit the road Christmas afternoon for Gillette and then off to Kansas so I haven't had a chance to blog until today. Christmas was wonderful at our house. Santa brought the kids so many wonderful toys, and unfortunately, some very loud toys as well. If those ones happen to break I won't feel too bad. We also had Grandma Rena here with us which was nice.

Looks like she had a little too much eggnog... if you know what I mean!


Looks like Rowan got into it too...!


Here's Kennedy and her new FurReal cat. Since we don't have any pets, this is the closest she'll get. It's actually pretty cool because it meows, purrs, and moves around just like a real pet.


We headed down to Gillette to spend a day with Ang and Miles and Mom and Dad which was nice before we had to leave for Kansas. Thanks everyone for all the gifts!

This here is the neighbors dog, Trouble. The kids fell in love with him and got to feed him all the leftover food that Grandpa collected from the restraunts we ate at. That dog eats better than most humans when Grandpa's around.


Rowan loved all the toys that Grandma had to play with.... even though he doesn't look like it.


His favorite part was sitting in the box.


Dad and RoRo had some bonding time too. That trip took alot out of us and the kids.

Last time we went to Kansas which was three years ago, Kennedy rode around on the tricycle and it was just her size. She barely fit on it this time. Her knees kept banging into the handle bars and we figured it was time to retire that toy.

For Funsies: There is a town in Kansas called Lucas so we just had to stop and capture the site on film. Lucas thinks he's pretty funny!

When all is said and done we had a pretty good time on the trip, except for the long drive. The kids had enough of the car and so had I. I am so glad to be home!

Thanks so much to everyone for all we received. It was a great Christmas and we hope you all had the same!
