Aunt Michelle's Visit and the last of the Christmas Happenings...

My sister and the kids came a couple of days after Christmas to spend a long weekend with us. We were so excited to have them come!

But first... Matthew had to try out his new wheels while we waited for them to arrive!

Proud boy.,.. he did so good. I think he will be riding better than his sister this summer!

After waiting "allllll dayyyyy" as my kids said, Michelle and the kids finally arrived! Abby was excited for Evelyn and Matthew to open their Christmas gifts. Ev and Matty were excited, too!

PUPPETS! I think this might be the "favorite" of the year. They have already spend HOURS playing with them!! Thanks Shell!

It wouldn't be an "Aunt Michelle" visit without a trip on MAX to Voodoo donuts!!

Enjoying the ride!

Shell and Abbers

They love their aunt very much!

YUMMY!

Both my kids LOVE Christmas lights. This year, in particular, Matthew has been really enjoying them, "Wow, Momma... looka dos Cismas liis" was heard multiple times this season. We surprised them by taking them (and Michelle and kids) to Peacock Lane. Needless to say, they are STILL talking about it!

We spent Saturday and mom's hanging out all together. Mom once again had great food!

They love their Grandpa Doug.. especially when he is holding the chex mix...haha!

Sadly Michelle and the kids headed home Sunday. We took the tree/decorations down that afternoon. It is always so sad to do that, but it also makes me excited to celebrate again next year!!
