Fresno!

Let me catch you up a little.  We were given an AWESOME gift of airline miles by some of Kevin's parents friends!  It allowed us to spend an entire week in Fresno, something we have never done.  It was great!  We managed to leave our own camera at home, so thanks to Connie and Julie we have pictures, but they get all the credit.

 Playing in the leaves in Papa's backyard!

 My kids LOVED every minute with their cousins Alyssa and Lindsey

Grandma Connie didn't have a Christmas tree up yet, so Macey and Xander went with Daddy and bought one for her!

And then they decorated it with their cousins.

 Merry Christmas!

 Xander fell in love with his Great Aunt Marilyn.  She sang The Cowboy song to him and that was it, they were best friends.  Here she is showing him the video on her iPhone. 

 Our gift(s) from Ross and Connie was a night out without kids!  We actually went out to dinner two times without kids!  BEST GIFT EVER!

And this is what the kids did while we were out

We had a family photo shoot.  Here are Papa and Grandma with their grandkids.

And here we all are!

It was an honor to be able to spend a dinner one evening with the group and share the time. Gpa Max
