Grandma and Grandpa Petersen came into town for Andrew's blessing and we got to spend the day with them today! The boys were SO excited! Just having Mom around lately is pretty boring I think! We had a fun day planned with them to make some Christmas memories since we don't usually get to see them this time of year.
After picking Brayden up from kindergarten, having lunch, watching Rudolph, and reading books, we started on our Gingerbread house.
Easton was really excited about putting the coconut on the roof and eating the frosting!
A majority of the work on the house was done by these two artists!

The finished product!
Each one of the boys made a gingerbread boy...can you tell who did what one?
Easton and Grandpa had a great time together! They played trains, read books, and pretended to be pirates!
After a trip to Home Depot, a snowflake making lesson for Brayden from Grandma, more playing, and dinner we headed to Thanksgiving Point. We drove through the lights and then braved the cold temps (21 degrees) to see the reindeer.
Brayden had to pet one!
Grandma and Easton enjoyed seeing them too.

After some hot chocolate and dessert, we headed back out to see it all one more time before coming home for bedtime.
My boys and I....doesn't Easton look thrilled?!?!
Thanks for a wonderful day! It sure was nice to have two extra sets of ADULT hands around the house to help with so many things!
