Thanksgiving and Christmas 2013


For Thanksgiving this year we went to Grandma Burton's house in Murray.  We also had a gratitude dinner with the Ebell family to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas.  For Christmas Eve we were able to go to Grandma and Grandpa Ault's house in Mount Pleasant and then on Christmas morning we opened presents at Grandma and Grandpa Zimmerman's house and then went over to Grandma and Grandpa Ault's to open more presents and eat breakfast.  We also surprised everyone with Ryker opening a shirt that said "big brother" on it.  We were so excited to be able to share that we are having another baby!  It was a great holiday and so fun to see Ryker celebrate his second Christmas.  He got a lot of fun presents including a ride on train, a home depot tool table and play tools, toy cars from the movie cars, and a mini ATV.  The day after Christmas we took Ryker sledding for the first time and he loved it!  He was laughing and smiling so much.
