We got up Saturday morning and had breakfast with Michelle and Jared at our hotel. They offer a cooked to order breakfast and the highlight for me were the pumpkin pancakes. YUM! After that we went over to Nonnie’s house to open Christmas presents and have play time.
After that it was nap time for all to recover from the travel and parade the night before. Then we headed over to Zodo’s to bowl with my friends from high school, Matt and Staci and their kids. Amelie was not sure what to think of the bowling at the beginning, but Nadia was all in from the start!
Look at these beautiful kids!
After bowling we headed back to Nonnie and Grandpa Brian’s for a family party. Grandma and Grandpa Petlow, my aunt Paula, Ashley and her daughter Laura Leigh all came over for dinner. Laura Leigh is one of the girls 2nd cousins and when she came in and had been playing for a little while she said, “OH I am SO excited that there are girls here to play with this time!!” They colored and played with playdough and giggled for ages. It was really precious.
Dinner was delicious and visiting with everyone was a lot of fun. The day was so busy, but it was fun to see so many people that we love.
