…was at our house this year! Family joined from all Idaho, New York, and Oakland. We ate a bunch, walked a bunch, laughed a bunch.
Everyone received decorative socks, LED light up beanies, and slippers. We had Margaret and Randy bring their dog Luke with them. The puppies played with him a few years ago and had a blast. This time, they were not so sure. Poor Luke. He just wanted to play. But Austin was territorial.
Margaret’s famous Christmas Tree bread… I had asked the boys earlier in the season what their favorite Christmas traditions were that they wanted to carry on into their homes as adults. Both replied simultaneously, ‘Grandma’s Christmas bread!”
BEST PRESENT! We all had cards on our plates. Upon opening the card, we learned that Paul and Shannon are having a baby! I’m going to be an Auntie again!!
Sara’s husband Charlie is from London. They do Christmas “crackers” and inside the crackers are a paper crown, and a little toy. I placed my crown on my beanie…
Paul and Shannon Skyping with other family members to make the announcement!
Sara, modeling the virtual reality set Charlie received for Christmas…
The poppy love going for wagon rides! And a moment of peace with the three dogs…
Margaret and Randy sted a couple days longer and we took advantage of the lovely weather and went for a little hike.
