Christmas Part IV: Back to the Bickels

or . . .
home again, home again, jiggety jig!


When we returned home, Grammie Linda had made everything so beautiful in the moving chaos and we were ready for Christmas dinner! We took the Great Grandparents over to the see the house which was wonderful.

Auntie Nancy, Uncle Joe and cousin Matt came for dinner and the official Christmas gift exchange which, as always, was a lot of fun. This year, Todd and I both ended up with Snuggies (picture to follow!) and Luke ended up with a personalized suitcase (perfect for going to Grammie's house!), his train table of glory and majesty and a plethora of Cars merchandise. How appropriate. So now Lightning and Mater are his new best friends.


Luke was not so interested in dinner, though Todd and Linda prepared an amazing prime rib for us all. Luke was overstimulated and pooped, though he ate a few green beans and Great Grandma's cookies. It was Christmas! He had to have Christmas cookies!! He ate a lot the next morning.

And then, we were done. We were able to enjoy a quiet night at home, and well deserved. Please note: that was 4 Christmas events in one day. Yikes!
