Back to the East Coast

Well Clay and I packed up the kids our bags and ventured back to the East Coast. Brent and Merritt hosted Christmas this year. They were very, very brave!! Brent's family is a family of 5 and 1/2 plus a dog, our family of 5 and Gammy! So, yes it was WILD with 6 kids 5 and under if you can imagine. We had a really fun time though! Mom had lots of entertainment planned for the kids. Art project, leap frog, Mother May I. Also,Griffin has a "park" at his house. Well, that is what Cooper called it. He thinks every playset is a park because we don't have one anymore, we have to go to the park.
We also attempted a Christmas Eve service at Brent and Merritt's Church. Our kids lasted all of 5 minutes before we had to walk out :). Pretty much the same as our attempt last year at Westwood.
The kids put reindeer food in the yard on Christmas Eve after our delicious dinner! Santa came to the Parnell's house which was a little difficult for my kids because he had already come early in CA. But, he did deliver their stockings :).
We all had a very fun time visiting and catching up with each other.
