Over the river and through the woods...

to Great Grandmother's house we go! Our 1st Christmas Eve! Of course there was more snow and cold, cold temperatures. That didn't dampen our spirits. We got the kiddos dressed, into the car, and arrived around 5:30pm. Grandma Cleys' house was beautiful! The tree was enormous and just filled with presents (it ended up that most of them were for the babies!) The fire was going and once I sat down, I almost fell asleep.

The babies were very good, for the most part. We had some major spit-up issues, but that didn't stop the family from holding them. Even Uncle Jeff had his turn. This was the first time many of the family has seen the kids, so everyone was super excited. Abby was so calm and wide-eyed. The boys needed their paci's. Grandma loved the book that we made her.

The babies received SO many great gifts including: pool inflatables, slide, picnic table, savings bond, stroller toys, outfits, teddy bears, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time with the family.

Thanks everyone!
