MERRY CHRISTMAS!
This blog post is a little late because we have been under the weather. We had a wonderful 9 day trip back to Minnesota and Wisconsin to see our families, but the day after we got back to Columbus Kylie caught a stomach bug. Then everyone else caught the stomach bug. So we have spent the past week either being sick, taking care of someone who was sick, or cleaning to avoid further sickness. I am so thankful for bleach, and I am praying that all of the germs are finally gone!
Now, on to our fun Christmas! We spent the first half of our vacay with the Barlow's in Hudson. We got to see a lot of our old friends, we spent a ton of quality time with Jon's family, and did a lot of fun activities together! We had a baking day, bowling, a dinner out without the kids, and Jon and I were even able to go to a late movie together! Of course, we also went to church on Christmas Eve, had an amazing home-cooked meal, and opened an extremely generous amount of gifts!
On Christmas Day, we headed down to Stewartville to spend the second half of our vacay with the King family. We celebrated three times with different portions of family, and it was so great to see most of my extended family! Most importantly, we got to hang out with my parents, grandma, brother, sister and their families quite a bit, which is always the best part!
Thank you to everyone for the wonderful holiday!
Merry Christmas to all!
