What a great weekend! Friday night we went over to some friends' house to watch the Iowa basketball game. The game wasn't great, but the company was fantastic.
Saturday Kylee had plans with friends (see below) and Kael had basketball pictures.
Kylee planned to go ice skating with her friends but it was too warm out so they ended up getting shakes at Zombie Burger and doing a little window shopping.
Saturday night Kent and I did the Ugly Christmas Sweater thing with our neighbors, AKA some of my most favorite and fun people in the world. Kent's dickie definitely drew some attention. Another option in addition to wearing an ugly sweater was dressing as a character from National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and some of our neighbors went all out- one even wore the bathrobe out for dinner! We commended his dedication. ;) A great night with friends and a memorable white elephant exchange where Kent's gift was a big hit among the guys.
Most of the neighbor guys play Fantasy Football together and Kent won the league last year. So his gift was a framed 5x7 of this picture, holding the belt he won.
Sunday the kids sang at church. It was a really nice program. Then, we headed to Pella to celebrate with my mom's side of the family. A great time was had by all. It left me wishing we had more time to get together with our cousins!
We wrapped up our Sunday evening, in jammies early, watching Miracle on 34th Street. With our first Christmas celebration under our belt, it feels like Christmas has officially begun! Bring on the fun!
