Christmas In Spokane

This year we spent Christmas in Spokane with Ryan's family. Since two of his brother's recently got married, his parents' house was even more full than usual. With 11 adults, 4 kids, and an overly excited dog, the house was quite "busy."

Altogether, we were able to spend 10 straight days in Spokane. Some of the highlights of the trip were:

Celebrating Ryan's mom's birthday

Christmas morning



Playing with Ryan's nephews and niece's




Going to all of our favorite places to eat


Altogether, the trip was a blast. Thanks to the McFarlane family for a great holiday vacation!

Our Pre-Christmas

Since we spent Christmas with Ryan's family this year, we celebrated Christmas a few days early with my parents. The highlight of the night was definitely getting to see my dad's face when he opened his gift from us kids. We got him a muscle stimulator to play Jenga with so you can shock people as they go to reach for the tiles. I have never seen my dad laugh so hard! Totally priceless!

This year, Ryan and the boys decided they wanted to be more creative and skip the gingerbread "kits" so we could create "custom" homes with graham crackers. The project quickly turned into a serious task complete with a hot glue gun, "support systems," and some serious graham cracker cutting. Who knew that a candy house could turn into such a serious project!
