We had a WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS this year!
All the married kids came over about 11am & the grandkids/Heidi waited patiently...behind the blanket, until everyone got to our house & we all went in at the same time(it drives our kids crazy...but it is tradition!) I had fun spoiling the grandkids, as always & it was so much fun watching them open their gifts! The married kids surprised Robert & I, by refinishing my mother's hope chest & giving it to us...full of fun memories(calendar for this year, book of the past year, patriarchal blessings, ect.) My son Rob did a lot of work on my mother's old hope chest & it looked better than I EVER remembered it!
Later in the day, we all made it over to Granny's house for traditional waffles with icecream & strawberries! We used to do this in the morning, but as families have gotten bigger...we have had to push it later in the day. BUT...we still have breakfast!
It was fun visiting with all of the aunts/uncles/cousins & enjoying time with Granny. We LOVE her so much!
WE HOPE EVERYONE ELSE HAD A MERRY CHRISTMAS TOO!!!
