A little later in the Days of Christmas

We wrapped up our adventure with 24 hours in Las Vegas. I think over the 24 hours we managed to lose $25 in coins and walk close to 10 miles. Though we wish we had won a little, it was fun to see the city!

On the Third Day of Christmas

We drove to the Grand Canyon!!!!!!!!! A high of 29 degrees!!! Loads of fun and lots of snow!

THE 60TH!!!

December 26th, 1948 was a special day indeed! Oma and Opa got married in LaCrosse, Wisconson at Oma Austy's home. 60 years, 3 children, and 6 grandchildren later we were able to celebrate the occasion one more time with them! Accompanied by several of their friends, we toasted them and their wonderful marriage! They are going for 70!

Christmas Day

A merry time was had by All! We (the grandkids) arrived at 11am to help with the Christmas feast preparations. We helped with Leftsa assemblage and making sure that the couches did not walk away. We opened party crackers and sported our crowns at the table! Oma, Mom, and Terry did all the hard work to Make the meal soooo very good!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve Day was spent hiking in Sabino Canyon. Dad, Rob, and I went off a hiking mid day and enjoyed the beautiful sunshine of the day! We returned to the house and got ready for the big family feast with all aunts and uncle present and accounted for! Family portraits were taken and Presents were geoffnet!

And the Journey Continues!

We arrived in Las Vegas December 23rd.... WAHOOOO. The drive from Vegas to Tucson is 380 miles. We were going to stop at the Hoover Damm on the way, but realized there was no need to stop. Traveling speeds approaching and on the damm was 5 miles an hour. We saw plenty of the damm without even stopping. Rob enjoyed seeing the Southwest topography upclose for the first time and Abi enjoyed calling out all the little towns we passed in the car.

Christmas Part 2

We journeyed to do Christmas in Macon with the Moon Family. Lots of fun!
