Christmas Get Together Take Two

We spent the night up at Grandpa and Grandma Koopmans to celebrate Christmas. We had breakfast in the morning and then it was more presents. Levi took a nap in the afternoon with Uncle Casey and after that we all went outside and played. We had fun seeing Maci and Emily together and Levi "playing" or tackling Collin. Another fun day full of the blessing of family.

Christmas Present From Grandpa Koopmans

We had fun with Grandpa Koopmans new "surprise". We had a beautiful day, the day after Christmas, to enjoy being outside with the sun shinning. We only had one "accident" when Levi and I were getting pulled on the sled behind the three wheeler and fell off, otherwise it was alot of fun to play with the new toys. Ryan and Levi especially enjoyed it!

 

 
 
 
 

Christmas Get Together Take One

We had the Roedema Christmas party last weekend. What a fun and crazy day! We went to West Leonard in the morning and headed to Mom and Dad Roedema's for lunch. We spent the morning eating and opening presents. Levi was way into opening gifts this year and could not get enough of all his presents. We had a few moments of not sharing with his cousins and then we knew that it was time to try to take a nap. We headed home for awhile and Ryan tried to calm him down..needless to say Levi did not sleep until about 10pm since he was so excited and wound up from the day. He was talking as he was falling asleep about his "chain saw"..from Uncle Brian and his trucks. Around 5pm we gathered again at our house for dinner and drinks. Steve made us "Frostbites" which were really good and strong. The kids all got into their new monkey pjs from Grandma. Maci was such a good girl. She has not been sleeping much but did not seem to fuss at allduring the day as long as she could see her brother and the action she did not seem to mind. We are sure blessed with a great family and we are thankful for the fellowship and time that we can spend together.

Snow Day

Ryan had a snow day today and we had fun at home as a family. Levi is still fighting a cold and is now on antibiotics so hopefully he will get better before all the busyness of Christmas. Ryan took good care of the kids this weekend while I was at work, he tackled alot of the household duties(without being asked) what a guy!...even washing the cloth diapers that we now use for Maci..ask him to tell you about the dishwasher episode too. Lets just say there was some confusion between dishsoap and dishwasher soap.
