On the way to Christmas in Cleveland! Alli enjoys a Disney
sing-a-long book from Uncle Pete that makes the trip seem sing-a-short :-) |
Nika
really gets into Magna Doodle while Eddie, as usual, enjoys the scenery. |
Like Veronika & Eddie at this age, Alli really enjoyed being
the driver for a while, even when we weren't at speed ;-) |
We
always have fun at Grandma's, the same house where Mom lived from age 3 until college at
Ohio University. |
The kids quickly prove Grandma's long-standing belief that a
cardboard box always makes one of the best toys around. |
You
can almost always count on a white Christmas in Cleveland. And Grandma's sidewalk
makes for a great tobaggen run (with Mom or Dad pulling, that is :) |
Grandma's
basement makes for great riding. The next day we learned from a guy at the gas
station that Santa stopped by at midnight to fill up the tires of Nika's cool new bike! |
A
trip to Cleveland isn't complete without sharing a meal with Grandy & Papa Bill. This
time, like many others, they fit their schedule around ours, treating us to dinner at a
nearby restaurant. |
We
always enjoy hearing about Grandy & Papa Bill's trips, past, present, and future! |
This photo of Papa
Bill, Eddie, and Nika was an instant favorite. It still hangs on Grandy's
refrigerator as I write this in 2002! |
