The kids LOVE Katie and Tyler and we love any chance to see them!
Back at home Great Gram and Mara catch up with a book!
Brian's mom has saved all of Brian's toys from when he was a little boy and it just so happens that our little boy loves all the same things...specifically Star Wars and Transformers right now! This was the first time Al got out the Star Wars stuff and for 2 days he was in heaven with all the the mint condition toys. He just sat and played by himself or others in perfect contentment
How cool is this big thing?
A boy and his daddy- priceless!
The cutting of the turkey!
Our our walk with Aunt Marcy, Uncle Dan, Luke and Alecia
There were three, nut free, cookie choices and it was hard for all of us to decide. I offered Alaric all four cookies for an experiment of which one was best dipped in milk. He took my challenge and we had so much fun listening to his play by play....peanut butter was totally totally awesome and the sugar cookies with sprinkles were awesome. The chocolate white chocolate ones were just good!
Mara shows Uncle Tommy her doll, Emma!
No popsicles in the living room. The kids didn't want to miss out on any fun since we were all playing games so they sat right on the threshold to the living room and ate up!
After games and hours of talking, Katie ( a junior) decided to try on Anita's prom dresses. This one didn't fit however it did fit Amara...seriously, I'm pretty sure it would have fit my 4 year old neice if she had been there. Doesn't it just SCREAM an Arial costume from the Little Mermaid?
This was Anita's senior prom dress and Katie loved it. She actually took it with her for an option for homecoming next year.
Anita had to try it on too....not bad for 18 years later!!!!
What a super fun, wonderful time in Galesburg!!

This video is TO DIE FOR! Mara knows Christmas songs but never actually sings them...just dances around and says one or two words if you stop talking. G-ma and Mar were in the den playing the piano and she flat out asked Gma what she wanted to hear and then went into this amazing rendition of Jingle Bells ( goes to show she IS listening, she IS obessed with anything her Bubba says, and if you are quiet and let the girl shine, she will...OH SHE WILL!!!!)
