Lima, Ohio, December 4, 2010
Since returning to Ohio, each year early in December, Trey's parents request the presence of the boys for a weekend of Christmas celebrating. While I was away visiting my family last weekend, the boys ventured to Lima for their annual event. Grammy packs as much as she can into a weekend! The boys awoke last Saturday and after finishing chores to earn Christmas spending money, Trey's parents took them bowling (Noah beat Alexander by a point--you know how well THAT went over), shopping, to the Christmas tree festival and then to a movie. Following dinner, Uncle Chris, Trey's Dad and the boys watched Uncle Chris' friend cage wrestle. It was a full day ending after midnight. The next morning the boys arose early to make homemade cinnamon sugar donuts and then the infamous cookie baking and decorating. I regret not taking pictures of this year's "masterpieces" as they were the best the boys have ever created. Dee mentioned that Alexander was quite meticulous with his decorating this year--a far cry from when he was 3 and dumped as much suger, sprinkles and other decorations onto his cookies. Dee and Larry, thanks again for a memorable weekend for the boys--we're happy that you were able to spend the weekend with all 3 grandchildren.
