Christmas in Troy

After we left Columbus, we drove to Troy, Ohio. Ryan's parents only live about an hour away, so that was really convenient! We got there late, but opened presents the next day. Ryan's sister, Jill, and her family came over. They loved playing with the kids - especially Haley. She's 10 now (we can't believe that!) and was a HUGE helper. I could use a Haley around every day. She runs and grabs things for you, washes off the pacifier, plays with the kids - it's awesome!





Both of the kids got toys they loved. In this shot of Adelyn, she's hugging her new Eric Carle cards tight!



And Abel got his first matchbox cars. He carried all of them everywhere with him. He stacks them all up under his chin and carries them. He's still carrying them (all of them) around everywhere at home!



At the end of our trip, we went to this old historical home in Troy to see a gingerbread house display. The houses were cool, but the home was even cooler. It had this beautiful sunroom and we took some really good photos. Here's one of Mimi and Bobby with the kids!
