TX Grandparents visit for Christmas 2008

helping grandma and grandpa open their gift

SPL’s TX grandparents flew out for 10 days to stay with us (and SPL’s aunt Beth and her crew) over the Christmas break.  We had fun waiting with great anticipation for Santa Claus, celebrating Christmas,  spending time with SPL’s cousins, ACR, KAR, and EVR, aunt Beth and uncle Scott, and opening presents (which SPL did great with by the way — he was really interested in each gift and played or read each one as he opened it).

Highlights include playing with Grandma, talking with Grandpa, riding scooters with the trio, making and decorating a boat load of cookies.
