Our Holidays

We had great holidays, and I figured a late post was better than never, so here we go! We went up to Dad's Mom's house on Christmas day, and had Christmas dinner with her and two other relatives. We came back on Saturday, just in time for...


...more family! Mom's whole side of the family came on Monday and stayed through Friday of New Year's week. We had a blast! We toured downtown Fredericksburg, shot off rockets and fireworks, and started work on a chicken coop. (more on that later-probably when it gets finished.) We housed 14 people that week; we were so sad to see them go!!! But we had a busy weekend coming up....


We went down to Richmond for our ballroom dance class that Friday, and left Eric in Richmond for an airsoft battle the next day, and brought Mary home with us. We did lots of homework, but otherwise we had fun!


The D's came Saturday night to spend the night with us. They stayed through Sunday afternoon, brought Eric back, and took Mary home. This picture is all of us at our new table. It has two leaves that you slide in on the end. With both of them in we are able to fit 14 people at our table!


Mom made a great dinner with a roast from Eric's deer. It was so good! I thought this was a really funny picture of Eric trying to eat it... ;)
