Family Gathering

While my dad was visiting we got together at my Aunts house. Fun to see cousins, aunts and uncles and laugh. The kids all played well together while the adults ate and talked. Aunt Catherine had a yummy spread all laid out for us. We went through some of my Grandma's things. We found lots of letters she had kept from us when we were kids. They were so funny to read. Then they brought out this cat that wasn't real but seemed real enough. It was like a stuffed cat but Ian LOVED it and carried it around all night and talked to it. Everyone kept saying it was going home with us but it was a little creepy and actually shed. Then Aunt Catherine put on Grandma's old hair blow dryer. It was funny to see it.





Gayloard Ice

The Grinch! My favorite was the theme for the Gaylord Hotel's Ice Sculpture this year. We went with Aunt Leslie and Dylan and Will. It was so cute and lots of fun. The ice was just amazing and at the end was a slide the kids could go down. It was freezing cold in there so you have on your coat and then they give everyone a heavy blue one. Ian couldn't get his button and looked like a marshmallow puff.





Snow

The first of a few snow's this Christmas. The next two were huge amounts and this was just a dusting. Evan and Ian though loved it and were ready to get out and play.
