Snow at Gampy's House

We were blessed to spend some time with Ava and Anderson's great-grandpa while in Illinois! Anderson met him for the first time and they hit it off quite well! We took some pictures I will treasure for my lifetime! Ava just adores her "Gampy", too! Ava also got to play in the snow while we were there! She and her daddy had their first snowball fight. We made snow angels, too!

We went on the choo-choo train!

Ava and Anderson took their very lst adventure to Chicago on the Amtrak train on Dec. 19th. They had the BEST TIME! Ava met a new friend on the way there AND on the way home! It was 30 hours each way but both kiddos slept all night and when we woke up the morning of the 20th, beautiful snow covered the ground outside! Anderson met his Gampy (92 year old great-grandpa) for the first time and we had a magical Christmas with Mim, Aunt Allison and Uncle Eric, and Aunt Jess and Uncle Joe.
