Merry Christmas / Happy Birthday
Today, we had a Christmas / Birthday party get together at our house. This was one of the reasons we "had" to get the trips moved upstairs so we could have more room around the house for everyone to fit! I wanted to get it done by the end of the year.... this just made us get it done. Everyone came: my sisters- Kim & Jenni & their families, my mom, my dad & my Grandma Klocke were all able to come!! My Grandma Klocke will be 91 years old in February & is still doing great!! We had a great time & took some pictures. It's hard to get all the little ones to hold still, not cry & look at the camera... but I think they all did a great job!
This is a picture of my Grandma with all the kids (my grandma has 41 great grand children, my trips being 38, 39 & 40 and Jenni's son Cael being 41)
Here is a picture of my mom & dad with all their grand children.
It was also Payton's 10th birthday, (I cannot believe he's 10!!) we got a cake, sang Happy Birthday to him & he opened up gifts here! Oh, we also watched the Iowa game... they were in the Alamo Bowl playing Texas. It was a pretty good game, Iowa came out on top, but lost it in the end. As most of you know I am not a Hawkeye fan, so I didn't really much care, but it was a bowl game, so I guess I wanted them to do well =)
