One of the nice things about being in KC for Christmas is that we were able to attend the Putthoff family Christmas in Appleton City yesterday. It was great to see so many relatives in one place.
Mary was so excited about her cousins Carli and Gus. The two girls immediately started on an activity book. I overheard Mary saying," Carli, you're so smart. It's because you go to school everyday, right?"
There was snacking. (Doug with Aunt Jane)
And talking... (Bev, Natalie, Laura and Rita)
We saw ducks...in the back of a truck?
And more ducks,
and ducking under tables.
Of course, there were presents and some super excited little kids.
And there was just some good 'ole socializing.
Joy- Playing with a slimy goop that makes a "flatulence" sound.
Happy kids with their Papa.
I love that they get along so well...at least at this age.
Mary had a great time running around with cousins Drew and Nate before we left. When we got in the car, Mary said, "I really liked playing with them. It makes it so much easier when they speak the same language. It's hard to understand people when they don't speak your language." How true.
And finally, you know it was a successful day when Mary falls asleep in the car on the way home and Adam falls asleep on the floor in the hallway.
