THE FUN CONTINUES

We are on to the second part of our christmas celebration. Yesterday we moved everyone to Ron's parents house, we will see how much stuff I left behind at my parents house. There were many fun memories from this past week. Sitting in church with my entire family Christmas day, listening to some beautiful christmas music with trumpets was very special. Seeing all three kids up at the organ after church talking to grandma is always fun to see. Brayden had a lot of fun playing in the snow as long as his hands stayed warm. Aunt Robyn kept him busy building a block house this past afternoon which he was very proud of. The boys kept the WI busy and even I tried my hand at some mario cart....which I took 11th place every time, although I did strike out my son on baseball. We ate tons of fudge, cookies, bars and candy. Thankfully our family stayed out of the coal business this year. Unfortunately for my Grandma she is stuck with it this year something about a speeding ticket. I do think my brother David deserved it for fish hooking my mother in the lip this past summer....but as usual he gets off Scot free. Brayden couldn't quite figure out the whole coal thing and at one point said he actually wanted the coal. We informed him that he was on the naughty list for breaking a window this year -after he saw the big fuss about receiving it he was pretty proud that he didn't get it. The kids had lots of fun opening presents from all the Aunts and Uncle's, mostly just having fun bugging uncle Doug and David. Andrea loved Emily's new johnny jump swing and was not too happy about seeing Emily in it. After all the snow we endured a long day of endless rain and gloom, then after moving to the beach we endured a hung wind storm during this past evening. Both Brayden and Becca were up thinking bears were trying to get in their room...what a night. Sad to say Becca has come down with her typical respiratory infection, but seems to be tolerating it better than in the past, thankfully there are plenty laps willing to hold and snuggle her. We will see what memories transpire in this next week.
