Sunday...and a few pictures with the kids

 What a wonderful heritage!  What a wonderful legacy!

 First there were two...then three...then four...a brother in Heaven...then five...and now...
 with spouses and ten grand-children!  We are so blessed!




 What you can't see...the sucker he layed down on the floor to be able to pick up the tray.




 Oh my...a little Sean!!!
 Our big boys!
The big girls...oops, sorry Allison, just got the top of your head!


Friday and Saturday with the family

 The girls got together to have fun with Grammy and craft.  The mothers ran to the grocery store.  The guys headed to Cabelas for bullets, beef jerky, and cheese curds!
 Saturday...brought another sleigh from the west side of the state...
 and we were reunited with another uncle, aunt, and cousins!


 Isaac liked Uncle Ted...and Aunt Kari...
 Avery showed Grammy how to work her Ipad.
 Grampy and Grammy with all their grandchildren!
 We gathered as Grampy shared some thoughts about Christmas.  How thankful we are for God's Son...the greatest Gift ever given to us!
 Dad and Sean sharing the chair..."It's ok...my feet don't touch the floor if I sit all the way back!"
 We should have video taped...so many fun comments and laughter!

 Mom continues Gram C's tradition of the wrapped stocking stuffers for her girls.
 "Kari...it isn't a shower cap and toothbrush!"

 Ted got a kick out of the sticker on the box..."Invoice enclosed".
 All the guys got hats...some just seem to wear them better than others!

 Thanks to Uncle Sean and Aunt Becky...we have...the three...hmmm...gotta think on a name!



 We all were entertained by the two little ones! 
 Jabbering...
 and running...
 singing and twirling...
 and eating...
 and talking...
 oh...and LAUGHING!!!!
 HEY...SEAN... need some help?!
