Grammie and Grampa had planned to leave on Monday, but the snow and cold came in over the weekend, so they stayed a couple of extra days and, as Cam’s and Ian’s schools were closed, got to play out back a bit.

Racing with Grampa
Aside from opening presents and playing with Luci, Cam was most enthusiastic about challenging Grampa to a game of Mario Karts on the Wii. Unfortunately, Grampa’s driving skills weren’t as refined as Cam might have liked (scary, considering he driving the world’s largest pickup and pulling a giant fifth-wheel camper around). After two races, in which he was unceremoniously decimated by his eldest grandson, Grampa gave up.
Early Christmas Presents
Grammie and Grampa arrived with Luci a couple weeks after Thanksgiving on their annual jaunt through the Southland. The boys were so frenetic in opening presents that this was the best shot I got in the 38 seconds it took them to tear into seemingly scores of gifts, so heaven help us Christmas morning….
Ian Tops the Tree
After returning from Durham the Sunday after Thanksgiving, we did as we usually do and put up the Christmas tree — well, I put it up (i.e., assembled it and plugged in the lights), and Joanna did pretty much all the rest. Except, that is for the angel/fairy on top, which Ian got to put on this year.
