This year, the Thompsons celebrated Christmas on December 23 at "City Grandpa & Grandma's". Our mission was to bring some yummy Christmas cookies (though really why? it's completely unnecessary with the spread that Aunt Jodi puts together). But, Nathan and Ella enjoyed the experience. They especially loved making peanut butter blossoms. Nathan was good at putting the Hershey kiss in the middle of the cookie, and Ella was good at swiping kisses to eat! They were also all about the sprinkles, which were eventually banned from the kitchen.
Christmas was extra special because Great-Grandma Marilyn was able to join us. She is deeply loved and highly valued by this family. It was great to see her face light up as Jodi talked about past Christmases and all the potato sausage they would make! Great-Grandpa Bob, of course, is sporting the traditional Christmas bow during gift opening!
It was a great 1st Christmas celebration for Adeline.
