Noah's second Christmas

We had a great holiday. We made some last minute plans to go over to my parents Christmas Eve for chili, and opened a few gifts. Noah got the hang of opening presents quick, and helped everyone open their presents. Christmas morning we went back over to my parents and got to see my grandparents and Uncle Bill who was visiting from Florida. We had a great time visiting with everyone. After an early dinner we headed over to Brandon's parents for round 2. We had a fun day, but have decided this was the last year we would run all over for Christmas. Next year we are just going to relax at home and meander our way over to see family when we feel like it. We figure with 2 boys, it will be time to start doing Christmas at home. We always feel so rushed and hurried to get to different houses on time that we don't get to relax and enjoy the day.

Saturday we were headed up to Cedar Rapids to have brunch with my Grandparents when we decided to turn back and head home. It was snowy and the roads were less than ideal and with Noah in the back seat, we thought it would be better to play it safe. We were pretty bummed to miss out on Grandma's cooking though!
