Swenson Christmas

We spent Christmas Eve and Day in Mequon this year. 
Here's our family of four, dressed up for church.

The boys with Grammy and Buppa

Continuing a Ruble tradition; reading 'Twas the Night Before Christmas (on the night before Christmas)

The boys put out carrots, cookies, and milk for Santa and the reindeer. 


James arrived very late that night and was the first to check out what was left and eat the remaining bits!

Santa came!

Love this picture of Pat and James

Pat and Ed continued their tradition of making each other gifts. This year Ed made Pat a floating coozy for mini kegs at Pearl Lake

And Pat made Ed a personalized set of cornhole boards

Setting up TJ's Matchbox car track

After all the present opening, there was one last surprise--Santa had found a few presents at the bottom of the bag and came back to give them to the three boys. Lucky them--they got to see Santa in person on Christmas Day!
