Ryan and I had a really busy weekend packed with gatherings, kids, presents and good food.
Saturday morning we woke up bright and early to go to the Smith/Erhardt gathering in the city. We had a delicious buffet brunch, the kids opened gifts, and the rest of the afternoon was taken up with visiting and a game of Risk. Then in the evening we went to my parent's place to have an early Christmas with them. We had a good time, and I got a TRIPOD so I experimented with it a little.
On Sunday morning we ventured out into a blizzard to go to church with Frank and Jeanne at Springs. It was a good service, and the kids did a blacklight puppet presentation to dance music that was pretty cool. We had lunch at Perkins, and then headed home to open gifts. For supper we went over to Ollie and Jenni Plett's for the Plett gathering. I had a great time with the kids - just one "second cousin" was missing - Emily! So far, Elijah is the only boy! I also got to spend more time with Gina, and she was super cute all evening. We watched fish together, and she spent a good portion of the evening dancing to a silly reindeer that played music - but she doesn't like to be caught dancing on camera (movie).
