Christmas

Happy New Year! It's been awhile since I've posted. We had a great Christmas with family- we spent Christmas Eve and New Year's Day with Grandma & Grandpa and the six days in between with Mim & Pop in PA. It took us half a day to pack up the car. We were those parents that people make fun of- packing the bath tub, the swing, the pack-n-play, and every outfit that Eli owns. It was so full that we didn't have room for Gracie's carrier! She rode like a big girl on the back seat.

It was great having leave fall over the holidays. It was nice and relaxing, and we got to see so many people and introduce them to Eli. We're so blessed to have such great families. We enjoyed our time together so much- eating great food, playing Apples to Apples, and visiting with friends.

Eli got so many fun gifts- lots of clothes and toys. On Christmas Day we opened gifts only when he was awake. Needless to say, gift opening was an on-again, off-again all day event!

The evening of the 26th means one thing- time for the annual Bish Family Ping Pong Tournament. This year my dad reclaimed the trophy (yes, there is a trophy) from my cousin Derek, the champ from last year.

Before we left to come home, we took some very special pictures. Here are the four generations.

Looks like you all enjoyed your time with family. Wait until next year, Eli will be into ripping paper by then. It is so much fun!
