Knudsen Christmas

 Every year we go to the cabin for Christmas to spend it with Brad's family.  Since my family isn't around to watch us open our gifts, we open them before we head to the cabin so we have less to take up there and back.  It's become a fun tradition and it's nice to be able to spread out the gifts a little for more enjoyment.  This year Alex bought us all gifts from her classroom store with "money" she's earned by doing extra credit.  She got Brad a new Christmas tie and me an ornament.  Johnny also made me a new bracelet (below).


 My parents got the kids these signs for their rooms.

 Johnny got lots of legos and Alex got lots of books.

 Johnny's favorite kind of book are seek and find books and these are the monster of all seek and find books.
 Alex made Johnny an "I can read" book for him about Tom and Jerry and made him a tessellation of him surfing a wave.

Ice Skating




First trip to the ice skating rink.  Alex was nervous (as expected) and Johnny was a maniac (as expected).  He would ask me to pull him along as fast as I could and let go so he could catch some speed, or spin him around in a circle.  He fell down more times than I can count but he also improved a ton and was skating better than any of us by the end.  He asked if we could put a skating rink in our next home, or at least in his room.  It was hard pulling him away, but the rest of us were getting sore ankles.  We had a lot of fun though (and thank goodness for camera phones). 

And I know, I know...Christmas picture right?  I'm getting there, these were taken a couple of weeks ago.
