Christmas Adventures

We had an amazing Christmas... filled with lots of outings and family time. We started the holidays off by making and decorating Santa some very yummy cookies. Nana and Papa arrived the 21 and we quickly rushed out to finish off last minute gift buying ( you'd think we'd learn). Saturday was Nana's 21st birthday so we celebrated by going to Heritage Park BRRRR!.. But we did have a great time although freezing. That night just the adults went out to the Keg for dinner... thanks Pam for sitting! Sunday was the BIG Turkey dinner. Way too Much food as usual. That evening we all opened our gifts we got for each other. We do Secret Santa I got a gift Card to Lululemon!!!!!! YMCA here I come. The boys got an amazing train table from aunty Jana and Nana... Dylan can' t seem to get enough of it and I'm sure Caleb will be playing with it soon too. Christmas morning was spent all by ourselves. Nice and quiet.... but filled with excitement. Dylan was so happy that Santa left him more presents to open. Near the end of the gifts Dylan lost interest and just wanted to start playing with everything he had already opened. In the afternoon we headed down to the lodge to see Luke's grandparents.. we had a quick visit and rushed home to have naps before round three of gift opening took place. My parents arrived Monday night and we wasted no time before we began tearing the paper again. More great presents and Dylan and Caleb walked away spoiled again. Grandma and grandpa gave him a monster truck. During the week we went bowling, shopping, walking and to the zoolights. It went by way too fast... Maybe next year will go by a little slower. Now that it's the new year my little baby turns 1 in Feb!!!!! Yikes...I think I'm going to cry. Thank you grandparents for the wonderful time and all the great loot!!!! You outdid yourselves again!! We love you!
