Christmas Celebration

This year we were able to celebrate Christmas twice. We spent part of the weekend at Oma and Opa's house opening gifts and having Christmas Dinner which included a well decorated, traditional Chirstmas Log for dessert. The kids were given a special treat the next morning with Oma's homemade crepes for breakfast!

Christmas morning the kids ran down the stairs to see what Santa had brought them. The rest of the morning was spent with Grandma and Grandpa opening and playing with their new toys! Brian and Wendy joined us for lunch and Brian finally got the OU jacket he had been waiting for!

We had a great Christmas break and enjoyed seeing all of the family.

Thanksgiving at Myrtle Beach

The kids enjoying some beach time at Myrtle Beach. Weather was fair but it did not stop the kids from exploring the beach. The rest of their time was spent swimming in the indoor lazy river and visiting the Bass Pro Shop to climb on boats and ATVs.
