The Holiday dinner was started by Landon saying grace. He was thankful for his family.
He brought his placemat with the prayer so he could share with the family.

My kids with their kids!!!

Yeaaaaa!  We'll all remember how excited Gavin was to "play" WII bowling.

We all had a wonderful time over the holiday.

 As a side note we had left after work on the 22nd and traveled to Albany, NewYork in order to miss the snow that was expected to arrive early morning on the 23rd. Ultimately the hotel had an infestation issue that we did not discover until we had left .  This led to alot of laundry and an exterminator for George. 
Our ill luck continued on the trip home with a dead battery and a two and a half hour wait for AAA.  We made it home safe and sound but just a bit later than expected.  Even though we had some trials duriing the trip we would not have missed the opportunity to spend the holiday with our family.
