Christmas in Muskegon

We just got back from a whirlwind trip to Michigan for Christmas with Ryan's parents.

Here are a few pictures from the trip:

Christmas Day in Lake Geneva

After christmas at our house, we traveled to Mom and Dad's house in Lake Geneva. Everyone was there - Matt, Erin and the kids, Kirsten and Billy, my grandma. Here are a few pictures from the party.

Our first family attempt at a gingerbread house. Not too bad!

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning at our house - chaos in paper! Santa was generous with a marble drop building set. Will have to post pictures once we set it up. Check out the morning craziness!

Christmas Tree Decorating

Wow! I can't believe how fast Christmas is coming this year! I don't feel prepared yet. Cookies to bake, presents to wrap, cards to send. Yikes! Well, one item on the to do list is done. We bought Christmas trees this past weekend. Yes - trees plural. We have a fraser fir in the living room with the family ornaments on it and the presents will go there.



Then we have a balsam upstairs in the computer room which Ian decorated with all of his ornaments - both handmade and family presents to him since his birth.
