Christmas vacation

We had a great time visiting our family for 2 weeks.  At my parents house you can sign up to have Santa come by your house on Christmas Eve and give your kids a present.  You buy the present and wrap it and drop it off for them to deliver.  Its so fun.  I used to do it when I was little and now my boys got to do it too!
Caleb was absolutely spellbound by Santa.  He watched him leave until he couldn't see him anymore.  But then five minutes later he decided that wasn't the real Santa because he didn't say Ho Ho Ho right. 
After Christmas we drove up to Toronto.  We had to stop off at Niagara Falls first though.  It was FREEZING but beautiful.  We stayed maybe 3 minutes then jumped back in the car and took off.
There was a little snow at Great Grandmas house so the boys got to have some snowball fights. I loved the cold! It was so nice and refreshing.  Waking up to a fresh snow covering the ground is a truly beautiful sight.


Here is Matt's Grandma or GG as my kids call her. I love her! She is so sweet and loves the kids so much.  We got to see a lot of people while in Toronto- all of Matts Aunts and Uncles and cousins.  It was a great time.
Right before we left, some last minute pics with the Grandmas.  
We came back to Akron for 2 more days, just enough time to have a little early birthday party for Weston, visit with some old friends and have dinner with my brothers and sister in laws before heading back to California.
