Mom and her Girls on Christmas Eve

Our Family had a very fun but hectic Christmas season! Christmas Eve day began with Todd playing Santa at Hillcrest Nursing Home. The two younger ones didn't know he was doing this. We told them he had to help the Activities Director with some errands. After Todd transformed into Santa, he came "ho-ho-ho-ing" down the hallway. The Bear said, "That's Dad" before she even got a look at him. So much for trying to fool them!

We celebrated Christmas Eve with the Wieland clan after church in the evening. A good time was had by all and I think we may have boosted our local ecomony slightly!

Christmas Day was filled with opening gifts, going to Christmas Day Service and relaxing with family.

We headed to the Twin Cities on Sunday to celebrate the holiday with the Printz side of the family. We were able to visit with Jen's best friend from college, Jen's brothers, nephews, parents and step-siblings. We finished the trip with a stop at Todd's cousin's home. 6 different households in four days! Lots of food and visiting! Thanks to all who made our trip worthwhile.
