We also had a month of the flu around here, with Hunter passing it to me, and me to Chase. Luckily Skyler didn't catch it.
Mid-month we went to see a Polar Express Light Show at the Riggans' house and went to take pictures with Santa and Hunter was able to tell him what he wanted for Christmas- "Wall Tracks". Hunter's preschool had a Christmas party and he had fun messing around with his buddies from class. We made Christmas cookies and I made our traditional cinnamon buns and egg casserole for Christmas morning.
Christmas Eve we went to Great- Grandma Marylou's like we do every year. We had fun with another white elephant game, ate some great food and got to see Santa Claus :)
Christmas morning, we woke up and opened our stockings and presents from Santa. Chase and Hunter immediately set up his new toy and then Nana, Tom and Grandpa Pierce came over for more presents and breakfast.
In the afternoon we headed to Oma and Opas where we opened MORE presents, among the favorites were Skyler's Disney Princess push car, Hunter's Leap Pad, my new camera, Chase's new tool chest, and a new family dining table!!! Yes, we are absolutely spoiled.
Chrsitmas evening was spent with the whole Converse family, everyone was actually in one place at the same time! Especially with the 3 new little girls added this year, it was really fun to be together.
Here are some of our family photos we took a few months back...
We are looking forward to another great year in 2013!!!
