We had a wonderful Christmas break! We were blessed enough to be able to go home for about 10 days! There was so much snow on the ground and everything was sooo beautiful! We had a wonderful visit with all our family and friends! And between the wonderful time with everyone, the awesome Christmas gifts we got, getting stuck in the snow at the turn off to Mom and Dad's at 2:30 in the morning after a 9 hour drive there, and getting stranded in Kearney in that bad ice storm on our way home, I am sure it will be a Christmas we will always remember! Here are some pictures of our time at home! Enjoy!
Here is where Bella sat the whole time while I was loading the car! Apparently she wanted to be sure we didn't leave her behind!


Me and my wonderful mom on Christmas Day!

Me and Bella Christmas morning!

Nephew Luke opening his John Deere shirt from us! He loves John Deere, and actually already has this same shirt and I didn't know it, but when I told him he could exchange it for a different one, he looked at me like I was nuts...he thought it was awesome that he had two!

Nephew Matthew standing at the window at nana and papa's! Don't you just love those footy pj's! What a silly kid!

Me and Matthew - what a handsome lil' fellow!
