We enjoyed our time with my dad this week. It seems like he just arrived and before we knew it...we had to take him back to the airport to go back home! We've all been pretty much sick including my dad. Ian has that terrible cough, Gavin has the runny nose and congestion, Cailean has a cold, Dad had a sore throat and I've got a stuffy nose! What a family, huh?! I'm hoping these germs will leave soon!!!
We were able to make it to Christmas Eve service. Came home to our usual appetizers and then put the kids to bed. Then, dad got into the Santa costume and he and I drove down to the Nelsons. Luke is best friends with Ian and Ben is a few days younger than Gavin. Their two cousins were there along with some relatives, so Santa was a very nice surprise!!!! Dad did a GREAT job!!!!!!!!!!!
We had a nice Christmas. The boys ran downstairs and jumped on Grandpop and his bed! LOL I KNOW dad loved that!!!! What better than be woken up by his two grandkids, right?! Grandpop bought them a train that goes around the tree...very cool! Our family members spoiled them! Clothes, toys, gift cards, etc.
Tomorrow morning we're heading over to mom's. Hopefully we'll all feel much better tomorrow!!!
