On that Friday, we wanted to get Carson out of the house and away from the pets, so we bundled up and went to the park that's across from Grandma's work. We played and looked for trolls under the bridge.
It was pretty cold, so we went to the library at Grandma's work to play with all the toys there.
That evening, we ate and opened presents at my parents' house.
The next morning, Sutton had a basketball game in Newton. So we all went to the game to watch him play.
After that, we drove out to Goessel to the cemetery to bury my Grandpa Melvin's ashes. He passed away at the beginning of November, and and Michael was unable to make it back for his funeral. So we kept the ashes til this day so we could bury them as a family. Adam and my dad had dug the hole on an earlier day. Once we got there on this day, Mom said a few words.
Mom placed his urn in the hole, then we each took turns shoveling some dirt on top.
Afterwards, we went to the nursing home where both of my grandmas live. Grandma Norma was getting up some energy to come sit with us out in the gathering room.
Glad we were able to all get together and see them while Michael and Sara were here.
We spent some more time with Michael, Sara, Carson, and Selah, and then they left Sunday morning.
Ren had a Christmas party at school on the last day before Christmas break.
At his preschool parties, they always have a treat and a drink. After they clean up, they go get their towel to sit on and listen to a story and sing some songs.
