Gma N.'s Visit

We were very spoiled this fall in that we not only got a visit from Gma B. but also got a visit from Gma N right before Christmas.  Gma N. is not going to come out during December anymore since it seems to rain like crazy every time she comes, but despite the rain we had a super time with her.  She came out specifically for Isaac's school Christmas program in which he sang in a small group for one of the songs, but we were able to fit in a few other things while she was here like:

Baking Christmas cookies:


And decorating them:


Celebrating Paul's birthday:

Making doughnuts. (Of course, it started sprinkling right as we started frying them!)

 Opening presents. The boys spent most of her visit in the Santa hats she bought with them at the start of her visit.

Hanging the 2013 ornaments:
A football guy for Caleb
A remote for Isaac
Caleb loved staying home with Grandma for a couple days and going out for a doughnut one of those days. The boys also spent time with Grandma outside on their scooters when it wasn't raining. And we played a few games over the few days that she was visiting.  Thanks for the fun visit!  We can't wait for your next one--be sure to bring Grandpa with you. :-)

Love these memorable pix of Grandma N's visit, Paul's birthday and Christmas 2012...thanks for posting! I'm looking at these pix on the first day of Spring 2013, current temp is 3 degrees above zero so I'm still celebrating Christmas here in Minnesota!
