Merry Christmas!

As always, we had a wonderful holiday this year! We started Christmas Eve with a beautiful service at church.

That was followed up with dinner at Auntie Kristin's, with Grammy and Papa, of course.


Then, Christmas morning was full of presents. Never-ending presents…. Madelyn was excited to get the one thing she wanted more than anything: a Nintendo DS! She also got plenty of games to keep her busy on this new piece of technology!

 Toms!

 Auntie Kim sent Madelyn the very first tea set she owned!

 This year, we let Madelyn spend some money at the schools' Holiday Store
where she got to pick out things for Mom, Dad, Grammy, & Papa. She did
a great job choosing things for each person based on the things they like!

 Chloe really likes her new stuffed duck!

 Before heading to a late breakfast at Auntie Kristin's house, 
Madelyn and I whipped up some homemade New York style bagels! Super yummy! 
(Thanks, Auntie Kim, for the inspiration!)

 All the grandkids got Grammy & Papa an 8-foot "Packers Country" banner.
They loved it! It goes great with "Tiny" in their front yard!

After a long, fun day, Daddy and Madelyn crashed hard!
