More holiday highlights:
1 - Christmas Day! We had a great time opening presents, trying on new clothes, and eating yummy food. One highlight that I am especially proud of is the fact that Mark liked ALL of the clothes I bought him this year. Not one return clothes-wise...sweet! We had an interesting visitor this year too (Santa wasn't the only one to visit the Jensen household). Mark and Ben (posed as Dale Jr) bought gag gifts for everyone from the dollar store. Everyone had fun opening gifts from Dale, which included a Tinkerbell snap-bracelet for Kaylie, a "Wow" (not a Sham-Wow, but similar) for me, plastic swords for Becca & Kurt, and the list goes on. The Jensen's hosted an awesome dinner Christmas night for family and friends, and invited more friends to come over later for dessert and games. Some friends from Ann Arbor (Amy, Nate, and Lucy) were able to come celebrate too. It was a packed house, and tons of fun!
2 - Football Game the Day after Christmas (Little Caesar's Bowl). Mark's family was able to get amazing first and second row seats to the Little Caesar's Bowl.
I think Marshall and Ohio played, but to tell you the truth, I'm really not sure. I don't even know who won. Kaylie wasn't the least bit interested in watching football that day (or any day for that matter). All she wanted to do was this...
She is a walking/exploring machine! We were out in the hallway for a lot of the game. It was cute though when she could hear everyone cheering inside the stadium. She would stop and clap with everyone, and then keep walking. :)
3 - New Year's Eve! We had fun celebrating New Year's Eve with the family. We played a few games (Rook, Tri Bond, and Apples to Apples), and watched Kung Fu Panda. We were all pretty tired when midnight hit, but made sure to watch the ball drop and drink some sparkling cider.
What a lively bunch! :)
4 - Bowling with the family - always fun!
Now back to real life! We had fun on vacation, and enjoyed spending lots of time together. I hope you all had a great holiday break too!
