Brookside Gardens

During my time off last week, I went with my parents and the kids to Brookside Gardens. It was lovely! They had the neatest train sets and a beautiful little indoor garden. It was a warm and pleasant break from the cold.

Christmas #2

The second half of Christmas started out with a Christmas Eve service with my family. Santa stopped at their place too - oh how lucky we are!



My family

Power tools! Emmett had a tool Christmas and he loved it.

Doll clothes! And the chest was built by my G-pa and uncle for my mom - how special.

Poor Abby, she got a Gary the Bear saddle from Emmett.

It was nice to enjoy Grandpa's corn during our Christmas dinner.

Great-Grandma spent the afternoon with us.

Christmas #1

Our Christmas festivities started out with Kevin's family. We met up at the Gaylord Hotel at the National Harbor. We walked around a bit...it was a nice place! After that we spent some good quality family time together. Santa made an early stop at his parent's house and the kids were very excited.
