Annual Cousin Sleepover

This year's sleepover was a lot of fun. The kids are getting older and more rowdy but that makes it more fun. They don't get to see each other as much anymore so the first hour or so they just ran around and played. They made gingerbread houses, went caroling and watched the Christmas Story. This year is was extra special because Cannon came over too! When the movie was over and the TV off they all conked out within 10 minutes. The next day, we took some food and goodies to a fire station. One of Ellie's friends dad is a fireman and he took us all around the station. It turns out that another fireman that was on duty works with Greg so it was nice to treat those guys to a good meal. After we got back, Greg and I went out for our anniversary. 7 years strong. We bought a brand new bed to celebrate!! King size to fit in all of the extra people that keep coming into our room every night. We came back to Grandma's and the house smelled like coffee cakes! Grandma and the kids were making delicious coffee cakes...one of the best sweet smells of Christmas.
