The Holidays!

Well we have had our fare share of people under the weather or even just plain sick. Connor has another double ear infection, which came shortly after the stomach flu he endured. His Oma came to take care of him, but Connor gave his Oma the stomach flu.

So my mom, Nene, flew in Sunday night to help. Connor had an early Christmas with Nene.

And Nene taught Connor how to do the dishes

By Monday morning I had a sinus infection, so she was taking care of Connor and me. Chris worked really hard not to get it so he can take care of all of us.

Wheh!

But, we were all on the mend by Christmas Eve so we drove to Manhattan Kansas early Thursday morning to spend the holidays with the Nelson side of the family.

It was so fun to have time with Amelia and Landon who just love and adore Connor.

We had a great meal and fun times.

We spent Friday night at Oma and Opa's because all the Knopp's came down with the flu.

Just awful! But atleast they enjoyed Christmas first!

We came home on some slick roads and had a ton of snow at our house.

Chris and I were introduced and started dating 7 years ago. My good friend Angela babysat last night so we could go out for a nice dinner. We headed to our favorite - J Gilberts WoodFire Steak house and it was awesome. And free - one of the managers I worked with at Rainforest Cafe runs this steak house and hooked us up! Big thanks Bill!!!! Then we met friends out later to watch the Texas Nebraska game. It was a great night out.

Now we are just looking forward to the first snow and then the holidays!!! Hope everyone is doing great and we hope to see folks soon.
