Christmas 2014

7 of us before Travis & Cynthia arrived

Cynthia at the Wildlife Exhibit in Parker- they had a Lego exhibit so if it had just been the 4 of us we would have stayed there all day

Connor playing cards with Grandma & Grandpa

Thinking

The closest they have ever come to a "great Christmas picture". Maybe next year.

We have never had family live close, the ONE advantage I see to this is holidays. Everyone gets together and gets 100% attention and closeness for 4-5 days. Waking up Christmas morning and seeing the boys excitement then open presents there and then and then no more of this PRESENTS hype is so nice. I know I would not love going from one relatives house and another bouncing all over with presents in the trunk. I love the Christmas prep, the cooking, the eating and the game playing. Went on a double date with T&C so Mom & Dad could get a bubble bath and story time under their belts before heading back to Reno.

Merry Christmas from our family to yours.
