A Minneso-tah Christmas

Despite double ear infections (or make that quadruple ear infections), Nora and Owen had a wonderful Christmas in Minnesota. Nora summed it up when she walked into Grandma's after our 11-hour white-knuckled car ride and said, "Grandma, I like coming to your house." Uncle Josh made a mogul in Grandma's backyard for the bigger kids (and a few adults, for that matter) so we could go late-night "sliding" (or "sledding" as Josh likes to correct us Minnesotans). Owen said it best on Christmas when he replied "OH my DOSH!" to each present on Christmas morning. "Peter Ryan" hooked up Owen with an extra Playstation control so he thought he was playing with the big boys. And the inseparable Rachel, Caitlin, and Nora team played with chapstick, dollies, and purses for days on end. We always look forward to our trips to Minnesota, and this one didn't disappoint!
