Christmas Eve was a fun filled evening at Karen's house. We had a ton of great food...we must think more people are coming over as we make way too much food every year. The kids went nuts opening presents as Karen kept the gifts coming, and coming and coming. Very lucky and loved little boys. Eddie (Trent's dog)even joined the holiday celebration. Jude thinks we need an dog...nope, mom does not need another being to clean up after.
Christmas Morning
Yep, you guessed it Santa came to our house. Jude was really excited this year for Santa so it was so much fun to wake up with him and see his reaction to his gifts on Christmas morning. Jax was pretty excited too, he was not sure why he was excited but everyone else was talking in high pitched voices and smiling so something good was going on. Jude was especially excited about his Vikings helmet and jersey, he has not taken off the jersey since he got it...it is now monday...I finally got him to take it off tonight in exchange for a bulldogs jersey. Burke and I just smiled and took in the moment...we are a very blessed family.
Christmas day we braved the weather and drove to Virginia where we spent Christmas Day. Just like every Cope gathering there were lots of people lots of laughs and even more love. It was great to have all 22 of us home. Jude and Jax are so thrilled to play with their cousins, add in presents and sweets and their life is grand!!! The drive was a bit stressful for the first 15 miles out of Duluth, after that it was just fine. We are so glad we made the trip!!!!
Third and Final Christmas
Here are a couple of pics from our Christmas with Marsha and her side of the family. We had a fantastic dinner...as always...and enjoyed visiting and laughing with each other.
