Yoder Reunion

On Sat we had the Yoder Reunion. It was fun to see the Yoder side of Mike's family and get to know them better.

We had some wonderful food. Katie got to run and play with kids her age while Michael took a nap

Mast family Christmas!

On Christmas Eve after Mike got home from work we loaded the kids in the car and headed out to look at lights one last time this holiday season. The houses behinf our chrich do a wonderful job and had to go see them again this year. We loved to drive around and see all the lights the night before Christmas. When we got home we put Michael in bed and let Katie stay up just a little longer. When she finally feel asleep we put all the gifts under the tree. Mike wanted to stay up till midnight and do the mas Merry Christmas text message. but we could stay up any longer.

On Christmas Day the kids got up and watched a dvd for some time before they went to the tree. Katie loved opening her gifts.

This year Katie really got the point of gifts and opening them up. She even helped with Michael's gifts. Michael would crawl around the tree pulling all the bows off the gifts and want to eat them.


My favorite picture of the kids this year was of them on their stuffed toys

This Christmas was a relaxing one. We were able to just take it easy and do what we wanted and not have to worry about doing things at certain times. Brian came over to hang out and have some food. We were able to talk to mom and dad on skype. My aunt and uncle called too. it was nice to talk to thema nd see Katie interact with them.

Christmas lights

Last night we took the kids to see some Christmas light. The light show was the best. We went pat several house with lights and then to the chruch to see theirs.

The night started out bad but had a perfect ending. We plan to go see more lights tonight. I love this time of year. Katie's lights up and so does Michael when they see the lights. I love it when we drive by lights and katie screams " lights mommy look" I am so glad she understand them now and can enjoy them. Michael just gets happy to see all the colors and stats to kick his feet.
