We started a new tradition last year with the Froehle's for Christmas--and that is we celebrate the weekend before Christmas at Grandview Lodge! It's fun for everyone.......the kids get to play in the water park, jumpy houses and arcade and Grandpa and Grandma and Uncle Jake can relax and enjoy their weekend!
We arrived Friday evening, as Bishop had school and his party! The Elves visited again for a "bedtime tuck in" and Bishop was SOOOOO excited to see them! Nora was a bit more hesitant and felt more comfortable when I held her (just like last year)! The Elves even recognized us! ;)
The kids were so excited for presents and they got to each open one up on Friday night!
Saturday was a fun day of swimming, jumping in the bouncy house, playing in the arcade and hanging out! Some friends of ours happened to be up there and it was so fun for the kids to have other friends to play and swim with!! We were all excited to see the Steffen's! Bishop was a bit reluctant to go down the big slide---but once he did that's all he wanted to do! It's especially fun that he can swim and be on his own a bit more and I don't have to be stressed out the entire time! Nora had a ball going down with mom or dad too!

The arcade was a huge hit this year! We spent our fair share of quarters there--but it was fun and the kids were happy!

On Sunday Morning Santa was at breakfast again. Bishop was excited to see him and sit on his lap.....and he wanted to make sure Santa knew he what he wants for Christmas (a Kendama)! :)

A highlight from last year was ice fishing and the horse drawn carriage.....but the lake wasn't frozen yet, so there was no ice fishing this year. Bishop said that was ok since he only caught 2 fish last year! Ha! Grandpa, Grandma and Jake took off on Sunday and we stayed one more night. It ended up being a fun family night. The kids swam and played until they crashed! It's the best way to kick off Christmas celebrations and we're all excited for the week to come!
