The Morgan-side Christmas

We drove down to Davenport, IA to do the Morgan-side Christmas at Eddy's sister and family's house. The weather wasn't great on the way down, but overall the trip went ok. The kids were great. I took some pics on my phone of what the kids did on the trip (a collage from the way down and the way back):

Isaac got a super-sugary snack:
Piper needed HER OWN container of ketsup for her fries while making a stop at McDs


LITERALLY 10 minutes before we got home, I looked back, and Isaac had fallen asleep (for the first time in 10 hours of driving!):

Eddy's brother and family and his parents also drove down from Duluth. Carrie and Aaron moved to Davenport over a year ago and it was the first time we saw their new home. It's a great house. There were 8 adults and 7 kids staying in the house for a long weekend! Of course the kids loved opening ALL the presents. The adults had some great conversation. Eddy's brother-in-law took us running outside (in 18 degree weather and strong wind gusts)along the Mississippi. And Carrie (Eddy's sister) took Jamie (Bob's brother) and I out shopping for an afternoon. It was a great trip!


The Morgan siblings and their families:



All the grandkids--and they're all looking at the camera!

Then we tried getting one of Papa and Grandma Judi with the grandkids:

And by the end, the kids (and Grandma Judi!) had had enough!!
