Christmas 2017 - Part Two

Sunday brought a visit to Gram and Pa to celebrate Christmas Marchik style.  Paul kicked off the visit with some viola tunes - it has been so much fun to see him learn this new skill.  He won't let me video him playing....he catches me when I try to hide the phone to record him!  So just a still shot for now.

My sweet babies dressed for Christmas Eve Mass.

Sad that only the littles consistently do the sillies now after we finish the serious shots.

We can call this Paul's very own silly I suppose....goofing off with a set of Gram's coasters.

The Batman socks *totally* go with this outfit.  Yep, they do.

And then the opening began!  Paul helped play Santa to pass out gifts.

Someone was pretty excited for his new Lego kit.

If you give Paul a book (which Gram and Pa did), be ready for him to start reading it right away.  In the middle of the chaos he was nose deep in his new book.

She added a little flair to her hair.  Looks great Lillie!

Awe - my sweet boys, big and little.  Paul loved his new Under Armour ski hat.

We had a lovely lunch and then headed to Christmas Eve Mass at Gram and Pa's church.  We even ran into some friends and got to wish them a Merry Christmas.  It was a fun day and so nice to drive home in 20 minutes rather than 2-1/2 hours!
