Christmas Part IV

Today we celebrated Christmas, yet again! This time it was with Grandma and Grandpa Steinbauer.

The kiddo's got some really neat gifts as always. Our children are continuously spoiled by our amazing family. We are so blessed!

I made a small ham and a few other simple sides; mashed potatoes, baked beans, etc. We opened gifts and we had a nice lunch. There are not many things better than sitting around a table with the ones you love and sharing a meal.

After the festivities and food, my mother-in-law washed all of the dishes! She said that she appreciates a meal she didn't have to make and that washing the dishes was the least she could do. How sweet is that?  My father-in-law was brave and went up to the kids rooms to play. The kids weren't easy on him. They are constantly jumping on him and yelling and flailing around like a couple of loons. Today, they coaxed him up to Turner's top bunk and he played up there for a while. I don't think Grandpa Steinbauer is going to be able to move tomorrow.

As I type this, the kids are sleeping in their beds; with exception of Tyler who lays here beside me on the couch, submersed in a deep slumber. Hubs is watching The Avengers and I'm about to call it a day.

It's been another amazing day. I've once again been reminded of how much we are loved and how lucky we are to have our family.
