It's Christmas!

After the Packer game we headed to Fond du Lac for the Ellestad family Christmas.
We had a great time catching up with some fondy friends and of course lots of time with Grandma, Grandpa, siblings and cousins!
James is a big fan of the Christmas tree lights!

The cousins thought James looked like Bob the Builder in his Christmas outfit.

A quick family photo before getting our comfy clothes on after church... James is a hot box and was not loving his overalls and double layer shirt.

And a quick cousin picture with Jack and Claire - Landon and Elise were with their other cousins this year.

And now time for presents! Claire helped distribute and open the gifts in her santa hat. She requests the best gifts, last year she got a Darth Vadar mask and this year the movie Tommy Boy! Too funny!

Jack liked the presents too, but was also just as happy to play with the toys that weren't wrapped!

Stretching out on the floor with Aunt Jenny --- SOOOO happy to be out of those sweaty church clothes!

Still kind of warm... lets open presents with my jammies unzipped a little bit...

or better yet, lets take the top off! I swear this kid is toasty ALL THE TIME! I keep taking his temperature to make sure he isn't sick - so far so good! Love that little belly!

Finally, check out this great gift that Jo-Jo made Patrick. They went to their first Norte Dame game this fall and took some great photos. Joe used his talents to create this canvas for our basement.
Thanks Joe!

We had a great couple of days, spending time with family, eating lots of delicious food and cocktails and celebrating Christmas. We are so blessed!

Next stop, Mequon for the Swenson Family Christmas!
