Christmas 2017

We had a nice, relaxing Christmas this year. Lots of visitors, presents, and snow! Josh worked on Christmas day so we spent a lot of time with the cottage-we all went to see a movie which was fun.






Posing in their jammies on Christmas Eve.
















Working on the gingerbread house.  They mostly just ate the candy though. Typical.







Dad and Kyra came to visit the week before Christmas. They packed their van up and went on a grand tour delivering presents through Indiana and down into Florida! I was very jealous of their final warm destination :) 




Cuteness!





Helping grandpa make dessert.















Dad made the cottage a ham for us to eat on Christmas which was great. The guys really appreciated having a home-cooked meal since they were away from home! 


After Dad and Kyra headed along, we had a family get-together with the Sievers side over in Logansport. Josh's aunt Veronica made a couple hilarious present opening games that everybody had fun with. Of course we ate a great dinner and just hung out otherwise.

Divana and Dave teaming up.





I can't remember what Ike was acting out in charades but he sure thought he was being funny!














Christmas morning we got the kids up early to open presents because Josh had to leave to take students home at 8.






Ready for presents.










Dave liked his electronic basketball hoop for over his door best and Ike's favorite gift was his Nintendo 2DS. He's been wanting one since Dave got one last year!

After Christmas, Gamma and Justin came up for a couple of nights. Her big present for the boys was new bikes. She let them go pick them out themselves which they really loved.








Red and black for Dave and Ike's looks like a dirt bike. A couple of happy campers.






So adorable!











Well that about wraps of Christmas. Another fun year of watching the boys open presents! We survived Winter Break (barely) but have had several snow days since...we are all ready for some warmer weather soon!
