Christmas at Ron & Jan's

One of the jobs that Brody LOVED doing while at Daddy Steve and Namaw's house was getting the paper each morning. Namaw would ask him to go get the paper and he'd hurry back to the house saying, "Namaw" over and over until he put the paper in her hands. Then he'd anxiously wait (and cringe) as she'd fill the bag with air and smash it (making a loud pop)! We went to Pleasant Ridge Sunday morning, then the guys played football, and then it was time for Christmas dinner at Ron & Jan's house! I guess when there are lots of kids running around we forget to take a big family picture...but we did get a picture of the kids! Here's Collin, Lauren, Brody, and Katelyn.
Ron & Jan have lots of toys for the kids to play with on their enclosed patio. Here Katelyn was trying to keep Brody from putting the baby on the grill!
Collin and Lauren on a sit-n-spin that Collin got for Christmas.
Lauren and Katelyn with their dolls from GG. Aren't their dresses pretty (Lauren & Katelyn's)?!
While in England, Jan made a bunch of cards for GG by hand. They were beautiful!
Before we headed to bed, Lauren wanted to read one more book to Steve. It's amazing how well she reads!
We enjoyed visiting with everyone over dinner. Since I didn't get a picture, I'll just list who was there: Mike, Staci, Brody, Daddy Steve, Namaw, Caleb, Audria, GG, Ron, Jan, Matt, Julie, Lauren, Katelyn, Collin, Jon, Cindy, and Josh! We were just missing Tyler and Ann who were in Indiana.
