Christmas Eve Day we went to Allen's hill and had some fun in the snow.

Riding the inner tubes was a favorite!!

Ted & Kelly on the snowmobiles. Matt on a sled coming now a hill.

Keayen just lost his snowboard.

Wow!!! We've been home 2 1/2 months and a lot has been going on. We drove to Bozeman and spent time with Matt and Wendy eating gourmet food cooked by Wendy. SHe is an awesome cook and we love eating her food!!!

From there we drove the rest of the way to Minnesota for Thanksgiving. Kristina is a great hostess and we had a lot of fun. We had Thanksgiving dinner with Erik's brother Jack and his family.

We also went to a Christmas light parade in downtown St. Paul. We ate some wonderful Sushi....played a lot of games.....and did some relaxing!!! Kristina and I got up in the middle of the night the Friday after Thanksgiving. Yep!!! That's "Black Friday" and we did get some good shopping deals!!
We were gone about a week. Then Kristina and the kids went home with us. (or we went home with them!!!) Matt & Wendy put our car on Craig's List and it sold the day after we left. (Thanks Erik) We planned on riding home with Kristina and Erik would bring our car later. (Her car was bigger for the ride home with the kids.) After selling our car, Erik had to fly home. I think he liked that however....it took less time.

With Kristina around Christmas seemed to be all month long!!! She's a lot of fun and keeps things going!!
