Christmas Visits & New Years Wishes

Christmas was a busy time for us as we had Melody's brother Aaron and his wife Orishia come and stay with us for a few days followed by Christmas Eve supper with Tony, Suki and his mother, and then my parents arrived on Christmas Day and stayed for a couple of days.  Everyone wanted to be sure to see us before we leave at the start of February.

It was nice to see everyone since we don't get out to see Aaron often in Okotoks and the kids really like playing with him.  We saw my parents a month or so ago in Regina when Lukas had a soccer tournament but its always good for the kids to see Grandma and Grandpa and Logan was sad to see them go.  He really likes to have spend time with them and he especially enjoyed teaching Grandpa how to play chess.

I think all the kids liked their gifts even though they were a little more sparse than previous years as we tried to keep costs down so they can have a little more spending money in Bolivia if they want some souvenirs.

For the first time in a few years, we have nothing planned for New Years Eve and will probably just watch a movie together and relax a bit after the busy Christmas week.
