Opening Christmas Presents

Christmas in Cohasset

We’ve had such a great time in Cohasset over Christmas! The kids have had fun playing with their cousins, playing in the snow and at the skating rink and we even got to go visit my Grandpa Harry and Grandma Jan. 

I’ll have a few more photos to share after we get back to Fargo, but here are a few to start with.

The kids really enjoyed playing with Jiggs and Rocky’s doggy door.

They also had fun wrestling with Grandpa Wilson.

We drove over to the skating rink on Christmas Eve and Raleigh fell asleep on the way there (it’s probably only 2 miles to get there). He continued to sleep while I put his skates on him. He woke up only when I carried him outside into the cold and set him down on the ice.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Random Pics of the Kiddies

If only I hadn’t cut off half of my face…this could have been a great picture.

These bunny undies were a gift from my Aunt Pam. They were meant for Leah, but guess who found them?

Raleigh singing

Happy Anniversary Erika and Joel!

I believe today marks 4 years for the happy couple :)

The only reason I remember how many years they’ve been married is because they got married the same year that Josh and I married.

Raleigh’s art

The little guy has turned into quite the artist since receiving his Easel and Paint sets for his birthday. Here are a few of my favorites.

 

Leah in her chair + a lurker.

Conversations with Leah

 

Me: Leah, don’t you eat that phone!

 

Leah: Are you talking to me?

Me: Yes, I said don’t eat my phone.

Leah:  Don’t worry ‘bout it

Did you know?

The rest of Raleigh’s birthday pictures

Raleigh and Adam watching someone else bowl.

Raleigh and Erika watching Raleigh’s ball head (slowly) down the lane.

No baked cakes in this house. This is Raleigh’s Ice cream cake.

Raleigh attempting to blow out the candles by making a long FFFFF sound. (Not too efficient. See Josh’s head in the upper left corner of the picture? Can you guess who really blew out the candles?)

Raleigh opening presents.

  

Raleigh reading/listening to his musical card. (We had the song that came out of this card stuck in our heads for the next week)

Raleigh playing with his new chalkboard/easel. (Thanks to all of the guys that put it together while Raleigh was opening his other presents)

Raleigh with his new Caterpillar train track set. It is motorized, so in this picture he was the tunnel.

Raleigh with Grandma Wanda admiring the puzzle that they had just put together. (A gift from Robin, Ryan, and Adam)
