Christmas in Ohio

We went to Ohio a few weekends ago to have some fun family time with the Lehmans.  Here we are around the table, frosting Christmas cookies.
The place we gathered is the home where Audra and LT live (as they are housesitting for a friend for a few years).  Our kids said they wished it could be our house, especially since it has an indoor pool and hot tub!  Below, Clay catches a pass as he jumps off the diving board.
 Emma loved doing synchronized swimming routines with her aunts and Grandma Jan.  In the background below is Amanda's new FIANCE, as Danny proposed 12-6-12!  We are so excited about their marriage, and it was fun to be together to hear the news and celebrate soon after they got engaged.
 Hudson was pretty excited about Uncle LT's big machines... and getting to "help" drive around the property.
 One night, we all dressed in our jammies and went for a ride on "The Polar Express," an actual 2 hour train ride with hot cocoa, cookies, a visit from Santa, elves leading us in carols, and the final destination-The North Pole.
 Here the kids show their golden tickets.  Lots of fun memories and great times together!
