christmas 2015 part 3

Our last bit of Christmas took place the weekend following Christmas.  We squeezed in two Christmas parties on the 26th in Kansas.  We got to see a ton of family at each, but if felt like only to say hello.  We left for Lebanon in the late afternoon.  That was the day it rained and rained and rained.  We didn't make it there until almost bedtime.  We were sure glad to get off the road.


We had a relaxing evening of catching up with the family.  My kiddos always seem to know we are somewhere new and want to get up so much earlier than normal.  We "try" to play quietly and eat bananas.


After church, we came home and pretended it was Christmas all over again.  The boys had just been playing around the tree and didn't ask once who all the presents were for.  They soon found out!



He's already got the rocker look down, doesn't he?

Amos got lots of new puzzles!  YAY!  Some hard ones too!  Nana and him had fun putting them together.

After making it up from his nap, Ivan got to show us his skills at unwrapping.  It just keeps improving.

We then headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Musgrave's house for more fun and presents.




Monday morning brought coffee and cinnamon rolls! Yum!  And we had a nice laid back day.  I think at one point everyone in the house was sleeping.  Or just about everybody. We loaded up after steaks for dinner and made it home just as our Audio book was finishing.  With all the rain, we were a little afraid that our basement might be underwater.  It was definitely a pleasant surprise to find no more water than after a normal rain.

Merry Christmas!
