Mike & E...good grampa time!

We spent Christmas morning having breakfast
with Simeon & Hannah

Smiling...even early in the morning!

N loves "Mih Mus!!"

I love S's smile!

Note that everyone is looking toward the hay loft..this year it was N's turn to place baby Jesus in the manger so he placed him in the hay loft.

N loves good grampa time

Simeon really likes the hat that Caitlin made him.

ahhh....bubble lights!

We spent Christmas afternoon at Bill & Aubrey's house,
but forgot to take pictures!
