All Kinds of Catching Up to Do

I can't believe Christmas was a month ago! We had lots of fun and hopefully you won't mind a few catch up posts to get a little documentation of Christmas 2010 for the Kraus family. First off, the Parker's flight got cancelled from Denver to Pasco on the 23rd so we had a little time to kill on Christmas Eve while we were waiting for them to catch their next flight and drive from Portland so we went bowling!What was great about the bowling was that Aunt Colleen and her family were there bowling too so we got to bowl with cousins and it was fun to see them! We didn't know we were crashing a Robinson family tradition!

We were so happy when the Parkers made it in time for our Christmas Eve dinner at Applebees. My parents picked them up in Portland and there was a lot of sceaming and hugging when we all jumped out of our cars in the parking lot at the Restaurant. Brian's parents, Nannee and Papa and Sara and Joe also joined us for dinner. I didn't get a picture unfortunately but we had the group room all to ourselves so it was nice.
After dinner we headed back to Grandma and Grandpa's for Christmas at their house!




We did our reading of The Christmas story earlier in the day so we could stay late at Grandma and Grandpa's. The kiddos slept in until 7:00 a.m. which wasn't too bad...
Trying to contain their excitement!



After Christmas at our house we headed to Nannee and Papa's.
Snuggies!
AND Emily, Kevin and Jordan surprised us and came to town just in time for the festivities!
