Christmas in Minnesota!

This past weekend we headed to Minnesota to celebrate Christmas with the Salmon side of the family. It was a whirlwind weekend (like always!) but we had a great time (like always!) 

Saturday morning, we headed out to see Great Grandma in the nursing home. We haven't seen her since LAST Christmas, so it was fun to show her how much the girls have grown.. and to introduce her to Hattie! 


Later Saturday afternoon, we all finally got to meet the newest Salmon- baby Mitchell! The big girls took turns holding him, and Hattie had a great time checking him out, too. I got a nice newborn "fix" for a while, and we got to see how nice Dan looks holding a baby boy. Maybe someday.... :) 






Unfortunately, we didn't get to spend time with cousins Keiran and Kayden. The girls were terribly disappointed, and I was pretty bummed not to get a picutre of all FIVE Salmon grandbabies together!

Hattie helps grandma Bernie set the table... 


Presents, presents, presents... definitely the highlight of Lucy's trip! She STILL hasn't stopped talking about all the goodies. It was great practice for Christmas morning!



Uncle Mark... and the kidlets!

Sunday morning, we hit the road early. It was snowing pretty heavy and we wanted to try and beat it home. We ended up with lots of rain here in WI, but grandma and grandpa ended with about 8" by the time it was all over!
