Christmas in Minnesota

We got to celebrate Christmas in Minnesota with Grandma Ludemann, Grandpa Ludemann, Aunt Amber, Uncle Brendan, Counsins Hayden & Abby, Great Grandma Bea, and Great Aunt Colette.

You would be impressed to hear all that we accomplished: A day at the Mall of America complete with a trip to the underwater aquarium, ridign rides at the nikelodeon land, and lunch at Crave, dinner for 8 adults, and 5 kids 3 and under ... at a nice restaurant ... made possible by a private room, several games of Zioncheck (one even by candle light - keep reading to find out why), watching snow flurries, going on a cold walk, watching neighbors ice skate, having a delicious Christmas meal after an hour long power outage right before dinner time, a few naps, opening a lot of presents, and getting to enjoy a lot of great company.

Here are some photo highlights:

Opening PRESENTS




Luke made the paper airplanes and all the boys flew them!







The boys love reading and singing Christmas songs, so this book with Christmas Song lyrics in it was quiet a hit. We sang, 'We Wish You a Merry Christmas," multiple times.
