Happy New Years from PA!!

This year Jose and I were blessed to be able to take the boys in to PA for a few days to celebrate Christmas and the New Years with my family. We traveled the 4+ hours on New Years Eve to find snow when we got about 10 mins from the old homestead. After relaxing for a bit we traveled to a friends house to welcome in the New Year. The boys had a fun time as I only saw them emerge from the gameroom once to fill up their stomachs. New Years day we spent the day with Gommy (my gram) and came home that evening to take the boys sled riding for the first time. It was night time so I couldn't take any good pictures.
On Saturday we had my family's Christmas celebration since we were ALL together. I can't remember the last time that the entire family has been together. My Uncle Wall and his family, along with Gommy, my best friend and her sister, and my adopted brother Mike all came down for the day. It was wonderful to eat a homecooked meal by my Momma and just relax for the day with everyone.
My sister has always asked for footie pajamas for a while, but we have never seen them. I got a JC Penny's catalog this year and they had them. She models them below with her "Build-A-Bear" Moose that my parent's got her. It's her Montana mascot.

On our way home we all stopped at The Shooting Academy to say goodbye to my dad. It was a bit foggy, but we were still able to see the elk. Only the cows were up near the barn, but then my dad returned to say that the bull was down a ways laying down. All the kids jumped on the "Clay Cart" to go see. I think the ride was the highlight of the day for them.
It was a long and quiet car ride home to Ohio on Sunday.
