Christmas Eve Eve with the Michalskis

We had an excellent Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa Michalski. Dziadzia and Bucia were there, as was Uncle Moose. Lance STILL won't stop playing with his quarry loader from the Thomas series! Grandma cooked an excellent pork roast, and we all dined like kings! Grandpa's Chocolate peanut butter pie was a big hit as well!

Lance enjoyed helping dziadzia open his presents!

Christmas Eve Eve Eve With the Pierantonis

Grandpa and Grandma P. celebrated Christmas with us today! They gave the boys a great tunnels and tents set. It's set up in our basement and they won't stop crawling through it! It also encourages them to play together, and no worries about lead! Such a great gift!

Decorating Christmas Cookies!

Today we decided to decorate cookies! Todd and Lance did a great job. Lance was really into the sprinkles. I had to take a profile picture of his cookie to show the true magnitude of the pile that was Lance's cookie sprinkles!

Lance trim Christmas tree- 2007

Not sure why the quality came out so poor- I need to find a new setting. I hope you get the idea of how excited Lance was to put ornaments on our tree this year! Soon I will take a few pictures of the tree with all of us around and post it. Maybe once we get a few presents underneath it!

O Christmas Tree

Today we went to pick out a Christmas tree! We went to Blake's Orchard. It took us awhile, but we finally found the perfect one. Todd and Lance cut it down and pulled it back to the hayride area on a special cart. Then back to the general store for hot cider and donuts. We had a great time. The weather was chilly, but not too cold thanks to the sunshine and lack of wind.










Charlie Brown- I mean Lance- loved this tree. He wanted to take it home

Santa Claus!

Today we went to visit Santa. Lance loved it, but Roman was a little unsure. Still, no crying!
