We left our house on Christmas Day to go to Chillicothe. For the first time ever everything was taking place on the same weekend. Score! We had a total of six present-opening parties (including our own) over the course of four days. Whew! First up was my family on Thursday night.
hilarious book that Grandma and Grandpa got Olive
It was the nicest Christmas weather I remember so we played outside
Marissa and Casey brought a mustache game for everyone to play
Kerr Christmas was at lunch on Saturday.
The great white elephant exchange (plus calendars)
We brought the mustache game, and look at the awesomeness that ensued. Great-grandma Velma with a sweet stache!
What a sneaky stache!
Susan was really the sneaky stache and I couldn't take a picture fast enough!
After raging for awhile (overtired Olive is not a pleasant Olive), she eventually put herself to sleep in the corner.
A real mustache!
Then back to my parents house for dinner and the Meneely/Schad/Stapp white elephant exchange. Followed, of course, by an epic family game of Diminishing Words. It is always super fun to play when my parents and aunt and uncle join in!
Sunday we went to Steve's parents' for Granny and Papa gifts. Somehow no pictures were taken. Then we went to great-aunt Peggy's house for Hickman Christmas. I tried to get some cousin pictures...

Four generations: Great-grandma Alice, Granny, Steve and Susan, and their girls
After we left Hickman Christmas we drove over to Meadville for my great-aunt and great-uncle's 70th anniversary celebration. Then on to Chillicothe to visit another great-uncle who was in the hospital. We saw the lights in Simpson Park before heading for home.
We unpacked our car Sunday night and then Monday (after re-packing!) we were off to St. Louis!
