The day after Thanksgiving Santa Claus visited our courthouse.
Dixon was really excited to see him but Breckin wasn't so sure.
However, they both decided not to look at the camera.
The week before Christmas Dixon and I went to Christmas at my dad's house.
Breckin and Adam would have loved to go, but Breckin was at the dr that same morning and diagnosed with strep throat.
With six kids, 13.5 grandkids, spouses and friends there was not a lack of entertainment or laughs. Breckie's present was hand delivered the very next day.
The boys and Adam and I made a special trip to Des Moines the week before Christmas to ride the train and see the Jolly Holiday Lights. The boys loved both experiences, although JHL got a little long. :)
Christmas morning the boys Adam woke everyone up at 6 am. The boys were greeted by plenty of cars, trucks, Star Wars, and even a new sled.
At about 7:30 on Christmas morning we headed out to Grandma Wendys to see family and open more gifts.
After Grandma Wendy's, our next stop was Grandma Gayles where we saw more aunts and uncles and opened even more gifts.
Next, we went home for a small break to change into matching argyle sweaters, before going to
Grandma Patty's house for snacks, gifts, family and laughs.
Next was back to grandma Gayles for her delish ham and pineapple gravy. Yummmmmm.
The boys were also able to see Grandpa Louis and Grandma Nancy,
eat lots and lots of peanut butter pie,
and rough house with their Aunt Natalie.
I then dropped all three boys off at home and went back to my moms.
Where she took care of my tension headache with rotating warm cloths and an ice pack.
Ahhhh yes...another successful Christmas.
