christmas pictures

We went to Branson, MO to celebrate Christmas with my side of the fam. I only have a few pictures, but they are fun ones!


Asha enjoying the front-pack with Grandma



I think the kids favorite part was riding in these little race cars up a three level ramp! So fun!



not sure what David is doing with his hand in this one... but whatever it was it helped him win!



hanging out in our amazing cabin that had giant super-comfy beds and a two headed shower! ...notice Elliana's face in this one, hee hee. More on this picture to come in another post.



this was at Silver Dollar City. very fun, but VERY COLD.


this is a pretty good group picture (minus grandma, molly & brandon) considering that we had just walked in the gates and were deciding which direction to go, when a nice lady on a scooter asked for my camera so she could take our picture for us. ha!


David's grandma (whom we call nanny) has two sisters that live just half and hour from Branson so we went to see them for a little while one morning since we were so close. In the hour and a half that we were there, they gave Toby and Ellie coloring books, pens, OREOS, juice, & vanilla wafers. They gave us coffee, three styrofoam snowmen with knitted clothing for Christmas decorations, and read the kids two stories. They also gave us a little money and told us how we are just the most wonderful people in the whole world and our kids are simply the most beautiful babies they've ever seen... who does this sound just like???? NANNY! It was fun to see them because they love us like their grandchildren. It's sweet to see three sisters, all in their 80's who still have such a close relationship. They call each other every night and get all the updates on their kids, grandkids and great grandchildren. :)



this pic is from the long car ride to Branson. I included it so you could see Toby's "gone teeth" as he calls it. Yes! He lost two teeth recently! Can't believe he's old enough to lose baby teeth...
