Over the river and through the woods … to Grandmother's house we go! We spent the weekend up north for our first (of many!) Christmas celebrations. While the Big Kids eagerly awaited for the cousins to arrive yesterday afternoon, they helped Grandma S make cookies and decorate a Gingerbread House.
We definitely missed Aunt M, Uncle K, and our big cousins this year, but it was nice to play with Andrew and Evan.
First, we celebrated Grandma S's birthday …
and then it was present time!
Baby J didn't know what to think at first … so we let him work on his first present for a long time while the Big Kids quickly moved on.
The big box in the corner had everyone puzzled - but after Grandma removed the "To Grandpa" tag and told JP it was for him, there were squeals and clapping …
a new bike!
We spent the rest of the night relaxing and playing with new gifts …
Princess Jasmine!
New legos!
and checkers with cousin Andrew.
This year, we let the Big Kids do their own fondue!
The weekend went fast (and the presents were open even faster!) - but we had a fun time at Christmas 1.0!
