Christmas, part II: Cedar, MI


On Christmas Eve-Eve, we drove north to Lake Lelenau, home of Grampie and Gramie Estle.
Uncle Josh, Aunt Julie and the "boy cousins" Gavin and Bo had just arrived!Dinner on Christmas Eve after church. Grampie had a game after dinner to ask questions about the nativity story and (below) AJ reminding the kids
of the real Christmas story again before bed


Christmas morning and the kids with their piles of presents.
(Yes, G & G spoil them)
Luci and Gramie in pj's christmas morning....breakfast casserole and monkey bread....yum!


Jonas' gift from mom and dad...a castle! Uncle Josh hooked him up with warriors, knights, and dragons.

Aunt Julie is ready to cook! She wore that apron all day! (I guess she liked it!)

PJ's from Aunt Julie...Uncle Josh was stylin in them.

Luci's gift from everyone...a dollhouse!!! She was in love. A very close second were Hello Kitty
underwear and nighty from G&G.

E got a tunnel and lots of balls!




And a Hippo puppet, which he was initially afraid of.


Grampie and Gramie who put up with all of us for 5 days!
(Extra thanks to Gramie who stocked the freezer full of great food for our entire stay!)

Our girls got the same dollhouse as Luci from Nate's parents. It's very cute.
