Christmas along with Grandpa Barnes' visit adds up to a busy holiday season that we are finally recovering from. Grandpa had a few projects to handle out in Chugiak, though mostly he just enjoyed visiting with everyone, particularly Piper.

Over the course of their first few meetings they just plane wore each other out.




Applebees means apple juice and coffee for these two. When all of us were together, Henry reached for Grandpa's hand far more often than Mom or Dad's. For 2 weeks he was Grandpa's guy without a doubt. I know he really loved bunking in the same room as Grandpa.

Daddy was still useful though, as I have the dexterity to build up Lego sets.




Plenty of Christmas pictures here.
