We enjoyed a fun-filled Christmas holiday! Our celebrations started on December 21st (with the McKie clan, picture to be added later) and ended on January 2nd (with the Miller clan).
In between we were kept busy with many fun activities. We enjoyed a sleep over with Uncle Jimmie, who was visiting from Virginia. We decorated Christmas cookies, watched movies, and played games. On Christmas day, we decorated ginger bread houses with Uncle Jamie and the Ridpath cousins. On December 30th, Uncle Jimmie treated the younger neices and nephew to a trip to the Build-a-bear workshop in the Mall of America. The kids were so excited and well behaved! On New Year's Eve, we celebrated Austin's 10th birthday, along with Uncle Aaron's 30th birthday and and Uncle Jimmie's **th birthday! :) We (kids and all) rang in the New Year with our special friends, Michael and Julie Warnken and Mike and Chris Blanchard. Jacob was so excited during the final countdown!! Time spent with family is precious and we don't take it for granted. God gives us each other and we don't take any one for granted. Thank you for a GREAT couple of weeks! We love you all!!
