A few other pictures from our Christmas vacation.
Boy Howdy saw this hat at Target on our trip, and just HAD to have it. Yeah, he only really wore it that one day, maybe the next before it was discarded.
SIDE NOTE TWO MONTHS LATER: I put this hat in the costume box, Boy Howdy found it and adamantly told me this was NOT a costume, this was a Christmas item and should be stored away for the year with all the other Christmas boxes.
I sure hope that Aunt KK enjoyed the kids as much as they loved her. Cheeks especially fell in love with her Auntie.
They also LOVED on their Grandma and Grandpa. Every day Grandma Marler had a new game and book that miraculously appeared in her magic suitcase. The kids excitedly checked her luggage periodically throughout each day to see if new presents arrived.
Grandma and Grandpa Marler played each of the new games and read each of the new books on demand. The kids were in absolute heaven.
The kids also enjoyed having willing lego building playmates. I'm pretty sure Matthew and his brothers enjoyed it too.
And then there was playing with Christmas presents. Matthew loved showing Boy Howdy one of his own favorite science tools, and I may have gotten some fun out of Cheeks' presents - a Pogo type Unicorn that squeaks when you jump.
And then there was that one time that Mother and Father Marler got extra generous and bought me a game cabinet from IKEA. We kind of needed it, our coat closet was beginning to be precariously dangerous.
We loved having Matthew's family in town for the holidays. Hopefully we can have more opportunities to have them here again.
