The Christmas at my parents house was great. We all got wonderful gifts and I just love being around my family. We left right after presents were opened as we were nervous about the travel. We made it down to New Ulm in near record time for a Christmas drive.
In New Ulm we did some shopping and had a really nice couple of days with Peg's family. It's always a easy hanging out around them. Lots of interesting conversation and plenty of activity. The Seiler kids were great to Ollie and Hazel again and we really enjoyed the two days there.
We were able to go sledding...which was a much bigger hill than the kids are used too. They were a little leery about the whole thing and Ollie really was more cautious than I would have figured.
Hazel also struggled due to the speed. But really as long as Emma would take her down, she was willing to go!
We had a New Years Party at the house this year. We figured we would not be doing anything so why not ask all of our other friends with kids and see if they wanted to do dinner here. Everyone came. It was a wonderful showing and we really had a great time. True to form, Kristy even forgot her purse again this year. :-)
Well, I am off to watch some bowl football and maybe nap. My knee surgery is this Wednesday so hopefully that goes well. It's been great being off this holiday and I somewhat dread going back to work on Monday...but I guess...another short week...
