Galena 2016

After Christmas, we headed to Galena to spend time with Eric's side of the family. We opened presents, walked around Galena (and even toured President Grant's old house), and spent time hanging out at the house. We were able to rent our "favorite" Galena house this year, which was nice. We like this house because the layout is great and seems to work best for what we want. There are three levels, all of which have bedrooms and a little area with a tv for hanging out.













Eric is opening his Christmas present with his dad's old pocket knife. :)







Eric got this for Brian. It's important to note that Brian is NOT a Cubs fan....which makes this funny. :) 


Asher was so cute this year. He was really into opening presents, and he would get so excited when it was his turn. As everyone was taking their turns, he kept asking me. "Is it my turn yet?"


Asher's loot


Sara and I got these matching shirts for the boys. Cute right?



Haley and Aunt P doing crafts.

I had brought some Popsicle stick ornament crafts to do with Haley. Eden got this doll from Grandma R, and she asked if Haley and I could make a Popsicle stick ornament that looked like her doll. Haley and I got to work, and this is the finished product. Not bad for what we had on hand! It was a really fun project to tackle! 

And of course a little pie-in-the-face game. This was funny, I took a lot of pictures of this-the expressions are priceless. :)



Asher's face...LOL





Again, his face has the I'm-not-sure-what's-going-on-here look.




Even Uncle Brian played




He finally got pie in the face!
