Christmas, round 1

We were very fortunate to have Eric, Kari, Ashley and Ryan drive out from California to spend the weekend with us for an early Christmas. After the boys woke up from their afternoon naps we were ready to get the show on the road.

I know this isn't the greatest picture, but to me it is completely precious just because we have all three kids together to celebrate.
Andy was quite impressed with the little monkey popping out of the box.
Ryan is impressed with all things "Thomas".

Ashley was showing off her new dress with Papa.

Andy provided the musical entertainment for the evening with his take on Christmas carols.

I just love these pudgy little fingers on the keys!

Later we went to our neighborhood block party and Andy visited with Santa, however briefly.

It was all so much fun, but we had to say our goodbyes to everyone yesterday so they could drive home. I'm looking forward to doing this all again later this week!
