The Thursday after Christmas we packed up the car and headed south to celebrate Christmas with my side of the family. We drove to Jon and Amanda's, picked them up, stopped for road snacks at Jim and Patty's (an awesome little coffee place/bakery in NE Portland) and kept on driving to my Dad's house. We visited with Dad and Holli for the day and then headed back to Jon and Amanda's. Mom took Leila for the night and the big kids went to see a concert in Portland. Petunia and the Vipers play Portland pretty frequently and J and A love them. This year they invited us and what made it even more special was that Daniel's family was in town so we ended up going to a concert with all these friends from high school. What a night!!!
The next morning, we met at Jon's house again for cookie decorating! Daniel and Jojo joined us and the girls had a blast decorating...and licking the frosting off their fingers. Good thing neither of them was sick!
Auntie Amanda joined in too!
And of course, I had to get in on the cookie decorating action too!
That night we went to Aunt Kathy and Uncle Tom's for dinner. We watched
White Christmas again! Love that movie!
