Another fun Christmas celebration...

At Grandma Chris' and Grandpa Bob's house.

Santa made a quick stop to visit with you kids.
While he was there, Santa read a few books, sang a few songs, and even gave each one of you a gift!

We had a nice day visiting with: Great-Grandma Gundy, Great-Grandpa Gundy, Grandma Chris, Grandpa Bob, Uncle Jared, Uncle Chris, Aunt Laura, Alli, and Lettie.

It was a two-day long (and one fun sleepover) celebration.
Our time was spent doing crafts, shooting pool, and playing scrabble.
The new room provided a perfect place for visiting, watching football, and sleeping five little grandchildren.

Christmas Day, 2014

We were at Great-Grandma Clare's place in Winona. It was a nice afternoon, and I can remember the sun shining for the first time in about a week. We were able to visit with some of the family, enjoy some yummy food, and watch you kids (and the twins: Cashton and Jade) get spoiled with gifts..

...But, I'd say, the highlight of the afternoon (for you three anyhow) was little Emme.
Auntie Cheryl's dog, Emme, seemed to capture your attention and your hearts while we were there. At one point, she "escaped" out the front door; the three of you were quick to follow and it didn't take long for Jessica to lure Emme back to the house.

"Best. Christmas. Ever." -said by Jackson, during the 'Emme on the loose' episode

Family there on that day: GG Clare, grandpa Mark, grandma Bonnie, great-aunt Cheryl (Emme), great-uncle Mike (Jackie, Brian), great-uncle Tom, great-aunt Penny, great-uncle Duane, Troy and Sam (Cash, Jade).

Christmas Eve, 2014

We were at Grandma Barb's and Grandpa Terry's house in La Crescent. Uncle Ryan, Maddy, and Logan were there too...as were Uncle Zach, Emily, Harold, Kristy, Cortney, and Cade. It was a fun night--filled with a perfect blend of wubble bubbles, laughter, and dice games!
