Christmas Break in Ohio

We spent the week just relaxing. One day there was freezing rain so the driveway was a sheet of ice. The kids had a blast "skating" and sliding all over. There were a few falls but it was easy entertainment.

We played a lot of games. Some were more intense than others. Ticket to Ride Nordic Countries, Carcassone, Cranium, Waterworks, and a lot of the Wii.

We helped put together a hot air balloon puzzle and played on Grandma and Grandpa's Ipads. We watched grandpa master the art of a fruit ninja. The kids played Moshimonsters on the laptops and we even read some books.

We saw some old friends and were able to catch up (we love the Hunter's). We met some new friends and enjoyed playing games. The Maas family has a baby and during church Lindsey passed her baby, Mitchell Michael, back to let Mackenzie and Alexa hold him. They were in seventh heaven. So when the Maas family came over to play games Mackenzie spent almost the entire time with Mitchell Michael. She is so good with kids. Her face just beamed at getting to have such a rare treat.

We got in some sledding time. The snow wasn't the greatest but it was a good hill. We ate some free Chick-fil-a and watched Tangled at the theater. Loved Tangled. We were planning on leaving Wednesday but we were having so much fun we decided to stay until Saturday. It was great to spend sometime away from home with Grandma and Grandpa.
