Christmas update

These pictures are all off my iPhone, cuz I've lost my camera somewhere in our house remodel. So sorry ahead of time about the quality.

We're still enjoying Christmas break- we both have one this year. It's been a few years since neither of us had to work between Christmas and New Years, and this year we got to start vacation 2 days BEFORE Christmas even got here! -Thanks to the snow storm that barreled through the midwest Christmas Eve and Christmas. Just wanted to update real fast...

We went to DesMoines and my (Reed side) family gathered at Bridget and Zach's house. There was Wii, eating, chatting, Christmas eve services, snow, and a lovely Christmas morning together.

^- Charlie got the complete Beatles box set for Christmas. (he picked and bought that gift months ago, but to his credit didn't open it until Christmas morning!)

Then we ventured through the wilderness (that is Iowa corn fields in the dead of winter) during an ice/blowing snow storm on Christmas afternoon.

We made it safe and sound to Waterloo, and joined the rest of the family (Johnson side) for a cozy evening of gifts, games and dinner.

Elliott and Emma loved their rocking chairs from Grandma and Grandpa!

Charlie was stoked about getting the WHOLE set of miniature NFL team helmets.

Today we got to spend some time with Nana and Grandpa again. This is a very specail four generation picture.

It's been a very relaxing holiday with the we-us'ez.

Now on to skiing.
