Christmas at Grandpa Dennis and Grandma Linda's house!

The first weekend in December we headed back to Manson to celebrate Christmas at Grandpa Dennis and Grandma Linda's house. We arrived Friday night and enjoyed spending the night setting up the tree and decorating it. Uncle Houston and his girlfriend Shannon were there too, and Aunt Hunter had to work but got their just before the kids had to go to bed.

Saturday morning Uncle Adam, Aunt Sarah, and cousins Nolan, Landon, and Mabel arrived. We enjoyed breakfast together and then opened presents. The kids loved their new toys. The boys especially enjoyed their remote control cars, but they kept getting frustrated because the cars were on the same frequency...oh well :) Houston gave the boys a very short ride on his new snowmobile, and Landon and Caleb thought that was pretty cool.

Grandpa Ron showed up around 2:00, but unfortunately we didn't get to talk to him very much. The kids were quickly wearing down, so we packed on up and headed back to Northwood. We look forward to seeing the rest of the Ramthun clan on Saturday the 26th!

Ready for the party!
