2013 Christmas Travels

This post may be rather long because I just decided to document our Minnesota Christmas trip (after the Mall of America post) all at once.  It was a great trip and we were able to see most of the family and friends that we had hoped to see.  Unfortunately, not all are shown in the pictures below because I kept forgetting to take them!  But it was such a blessing to connect with everyone!

A stop at Culvers on our way from Wisconsin to Minnesota

Santa and his elf making an unexpected appearance at our friends' house

Excited about the present he had requested in a letter to Santa

The pressure to be a Viking fan starts young! ;-)

I'm cute #1

I'm cute #2

One of the best salads ever!  Certainly not low calorie though. :-)

Dad clearing away snow with the ASV

Just like this tree - the snow was coating all of the pine trees so beautifully!

Grilling steak and shrimp for Christmas Eve Eve supper

Wonderful Christmas Eve with cousins!

Merry Christmas from the Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport!
