Wii anyone??  Too bad....g'pa doesn't share the remote. :)


It has been six years since I've spent an actual Christmas (on the holiday) with my folks.  They decided to head over the mountains and "surprise" the grandkids.  They came on Thursday evening.  The kids were thrilled!  The boys convinced my dad to play Wii with them, and it ended up being sort of a mistake for them.  Grandpa wouldn't give the control back!!  After a few hours of Wii Chicken Shoot and Wii Sports Resort, we all retired for the evening.  We spent Christmas Eve doing what I did growing up on the day....baking and eating, and eating, and eating some more . . . you get the picture.  J' and I took the kids over to G'pa and G'ma Vk's in the evening for a bit, and then we headed back home for Christmas presents at home.  Christmas day, we headed to church, came home for a bit so the kids could play with some of their new things, and then we went south to my sister and brother-in-law's house for prime rib.  YUMMY!!!  It was a really fun weekend, and I'm hoping another 6 years doesn't pass before they come again for the holiday (hint, hint...mom!). : )
