Christmas in Hickory

The final stop on our “Christmas Tour” was to Hickory to see Oma & Opa, Aunta, Uncle Mark, Madeline and Audrey. We had our 3rd Christmas morning and the kids opened presents carefully scattering each individual piece of every game and toy from one end of the house to the other!

Madeline got her first bike from Oma & Opa (we brought Isaac’s from Wake Forest). We took a trip over to the high school to try them out. Both kids did great riding all by themselves!

And here are the two reasons they couldn’t ride their bikes at home in the driveway. These two thought they needed bikes too!

Their new favorite game…Don’t Break the Ice!

Isaac also enjoyed playing store with Madeline’s magnet girl and her clothes. But who wouldn’t want to play after Oma decided to draw a clothesline in marker on her refrigerator door. (Aunta and I both agreed we’d have been grounded for a month for writing on Oma’s refrigerator when we were kids….my how the rules change for grandkids!)

Two best buddies (although I'm not sure if that's a hug or if she's choking him)
 
Lucas was excited to eat breakfast at the big kid bar with his big brother! This was also the day that Isaac decided to wear his pajamas all day.

Here are the boys at a visit to Neenie’s house.

I have a picture of Isaac that looks just like this from when he was a baby too. They love to watch the cars out her front door!

And just some brotherly love and hugs!!

The kids played hard and slept great on the cots Oma brought home from her school. The adults even found some time for Jenga and Euchre before they passed out from exhaustion every night! We had a great time with Oma & Opa and the gang in Hickory and can’t wait to visit again soon.

  1. I loved Don't Break the Ice as a kid! And I didn't know you played Euchre... we should play together sometime. I love it! Glad to know y'all had a great Christmas.
