Christmas

We had a great Christmas Break. Our first stop was Fort Thomas. Here are some highlights...
Trip to downtown Cincinnati with my parents and Eric
Viewed the toy train set up
Favorite part-horse carriage ride around the city
Looking at the decorations in the nice hotels
Went on a date with Isaac to see The Blind Side ( a very good movie)
Christmas Day--we are so blessed
Spending time with Eric, Rachel, Mom, Dad ....it was so nice to relax and just hang out together

Drove to Indiana for Collier Family Christmas...
This was a long drive but the kids did well. (thanks to the portable DVD player grandma got us)
We got to see Aaron Christina Asher Aaliyah and meet baby Judah-and mom and dad hopper
The kids didn't nap at all in the car and were very tired by the end of the day
We drove half way home and stayed in a hotel
Simon was overly tired and refused to fall asleep until midnight. It was very long night with little sleep.
Went to church and then had lunch with mawmaw

Drove back to Fort Thomas
picked up Molly
Got to see Eric Rachel again

Next morning drove to Morehead
That night we did the adult Christmas
That morning the kids had Christmas
Got to see all the family and see the kids interact together
It was loud and crazy and at times seemed like a circus
Isaac and I went on a date to La Finca and then to Avator (awesome movie)
We did get some game time in but evenings came fast after a long day with 5 kids

We are so blessed to have great loving family. I am so thankful for all the love we receive.

It was truely a Merry Christmas!
