Christmas in Kansas

We successfully made the drive to Kansas and back to Texas safely. We had a wonderful Christmas holiday and were able to visit all the Kansas family, and Samuel got to meet all three of his Great Grandmothers, as well as Great Aunts, Uncles and tons of cousins. We were so lucky to get to bring Verna back to Texas with us, and she stayed for a week long visit and helped bring in the New Year. Quinn was so excited to set off a few fireworks for Sam before he went to bed on New Year's Eve. Sam loved the sparklers and Roman candles and laughed and laughed. But once the the big fireworks came out, the show was over, and Sam was not liking the big booms. So all in all, it was a lovely first holiday with Sam and so many family and friends. 
We love this picture and his look of wonder at the
 giant present from Auntie Ashley and Uncle Jonathan
This highchair is at Grandma on the farms house and is the highchair that I
 and all my siblings and cousins were fed in.
And now I was feeding Sam in it...oh the circle of life.

Grandma Ruby and Samuel had a great
visit with lots of kisses and hugs!
Aunt Ron was so happy to hold Samuel and held him for a very long time and was reluctant to let him go. She was very awake and we were so happy to see her. Cousins Tamara and Heather were there to help with baby holding. 




So after Sam and Uncle Dan disappeared, we got to wondering where they went and found this.
Uncle Dan entertaining Sam in front of the fan. So funny and they were both tickled to bits.

All sorts of trouble under the Christmas tree.
