And the celebrations continue...

On December 26th we woke at 3:30 and were on the road by 4:00 am with the truck loaded up and the kids all snuggled in their carseats for the trip to Missouri...it turned out to be such a wonderful trip and we made it there in record time (shhhh...don't tell your friendly local law enforcement).  We waited a few days for the rest of the family to join us in Columbia, but then the fun and games began.
 Here's Craig waiting for the action to begin.
 Aunt Jessie and Abby (the oldest granddaughter, 6)
 Mimi and her four granddaughters...Abby (6), Emma (1), Hannah (2), Gracie (4).
 Caleb witnessing all the girls...and dreading the fact that they are going to make him play with dolls when he gets older!!
 The whole gang...
 The beautiful Burkhalter family
 Us, again...
 Abby's best gift of all was a new pair of black Uggs...THANK YOU MIMI and PAPA!!
 Caleb is super excited to be able to play with his new cars and racetrack.
 Gracie opening her new horse.
 Emma snuggling up with her new sleeping bag.
 A picture of the family at the beach last summer.
 The best gift of all...silhouette's of all the grandkids.  We knew we'd catch Mimi shedding some tears over this one.  They all turned out beautifully and it is a gift that will be hard to beat in the future!


 Gracie with her silhouette.

Great Grandpa Art looking through the calendar we made for him from all of the grandkids and great grandkids.

And we got an iPad...which we LOVE!

Hannah all dressed up in her gear on Caleb's new Radio Flyer scooter.
