Ashland Trip–Cousin time and Opening Gifts

After Christmas, we headed down to Ashland to spend some time until New Year’s Eve.  Becky and Nate came, and Camille was already there from flying in the week before.  Even though Jake and Stacey live less than ten minutes away, they stayed over at my parents’ house while we were there so they could stay up at night after their kids went to bed.   We missed David and Liz being there, and wished they could have joined us!

The kids all had fun playing with each other, and playing with Grandma’s toys.  Here are a few miscellaneous shots of them throughout the week:

Once everyone arrived, we had a mini gift-opening party.  We opened our gifts that we had drawn names for, and we opened our gifts from Mom and Dad.  The cousins drew names for the first time this year too, and they had fun exchanging gifts also.
