Friday morning, all 6 of us set off to see my dad's sister, Marian, and her husband Don. We had to stop at Wayne's for breakfast; a long wait just for breakfast. We headed to Rice Lake to see them. Being that we haven't seen them since my dad died, it was a long overdue visit. They had never met the kids, and very nice to catch up with them and let them meet Anna & Alex. Thankfully, those 2 were on their best behaviors.
We headed home and the Andrews kids that live in town were there to enjoy a wonderful spaghetti dinner, made by my mom. We played games and hung out that night, as usual. Saturday, Pam & Dick joined us and we enjoyed time together relaxing at the cabin. Anna and I made it outside to play in the snow, but not for long as it was icy and she didn't want to play in the snow with me. 
She did like playing guitar hero though.

Finally, my cousin Katie getting a good snuggle with Anna. We're so thankful for how far Katie has come over the last year, after her accident in New Zealand. Anna & Katie are very good buds. She even let Katie give her a bath & to bed that night!
Then preparations for "first annual family drunk night" began. Kristin had decided we all needed to get drunk when we were all there together. It didn't exactly happen, as Paul was too sick with the flu to participate and the rest of us didn't overindulge. But, we did play drinking games...with our parents (including family feud & categories). Strange. Then, we had to get out the wii and play some guitar hero, boxing and tennis. Good times!

Good times!Sunday, Paul & I left and headed to Christmas #6...with Paul's mom side. Paul's aunt Shell lives in AZ, but recently bought a house near Deer Lake in WI and invited us all over to her place to celebrate. All the localities (and Shell, Rob and Hannah) were in attendance. The kids got majorly spoiled from all Paul's aunts & uncles...typical. I got hit with the flu while I was there, so I have zero pictures from there.
