Christmas Celebration - Part IV

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Henry's first marble run set-up. He did this one all by himself.

Joe and Henry's first shared marble run.

Jimmy really likes to watch the marbles too, it's funny.
We're already missing one marble...we think Jimmy is guilty...Meow!


We had our final Christmas celebration on New Year's Day with Papaw and Nana.  Henry was worried when we started putting our Christmas decorations/tree away before we had celebrated with them. He kept saying, "but we haven't had Christmas with Papaw and Nana yet."


We waited until New Year's Day to celebrate with my parents since they celebrated Christmas with my sisters family in St. Louis and then they headed to Iowa to visit with more family.

One of the first presents opened was the most favorite gift each year, the Grandkids calendar.

 
Henry quite proud of his stack of presents.

That's a nice shot of some horses at the Rose Bowl Parade too, on the TV. My sister Julie and her kids really enjoy checking out the beautiful floats after the parade. They let you walk pretty close to the floats and take as many pictures as you want.  The details are incredible. She went to see the making of some of the floats this year. She said it's more fun to see all of the finished floats. Wow, what an experience. I hope I get a chance to do that some day too.

Nana found these "MoJo" bars and couldn't pass them up since Joe is often referred to as Uncle MoJoe by some of our nephews and nieces on my sisters side of the family.  Hahaha, love it!

Henry helping Nana open her big gift.
It's official my parents have joined the club of owning a Keurig coffee pot.
Now, we always have something we can buy them...!
It's a camera! Henry's first camera. Stay tuned for some pictures taken by Henry.
It takes video too. This should be fun.
 
We hope everybody enjoyed their holiday season. It was really hard to return to work...as usual.
 
GO PACKERS!!!

  1. Cool marble runs! I like my Keurig, I've just been enjoying it too much. I've been wired! Time to switch to decaf.
