Christmas in Madison

Christmas with mom's side of the family was a crazy, whirlwind trip.

We were supposed to leave right away on Saturday (the day after our birthday), but Mom & Dad weren't quite ready to go. They still had packing to do and presents to wrap. We finally left after lunch and got to Grandma & Grandpa's at suppertime.

After supper, we got to celebrate our birthday with our cousins.
We got some fun presents from grandma &grandpa, the Dehnes & Angie.







And, we had cupcakes to share for our birthday. 



Even though we got a late start on the day, it was a fun day!

Saturday morning, we got up and Noah delivered Cub Scout Popcorn to grandma. He also went to visit Great Grandma Marita to wish her a Merry Christmas and deliver popcorn to her. Noah joined Cub Scouts a few days before popcorn orders were due, so he didn't presell popcorn with the rest of the pack. But when they had extra popcorn that they didn't sell, he managed to sell 3 of those bags.


After dinner, we set to opening presents. We got so many great Christmas gifts from Grandma & Grandpa, Angie & the Dehnes. 







Unfortunately, the Dehnes had to leave Sunday night. We were done with school for the year, but Ben & Lauren had to go to school Monday & Tuesday.

We left Grandma & Grandpa's house Monday so we could go home and repack to visit Grandma & Grandpa Perkins in Arkansas, clean up the house & get ready to go celebrate Christmas again.

One of the things we had to do to clean up was throw away our gingerbread houses. We created them in school during our Holiday Party. It was sad to throw, but we wanted to make sure we didn't come back to ants in our house!





Merry Christmas!!
Noah & Hannah
