Christmas is hard work!!


Great Grandma Flo and Great Grandpa Lyle




Here I am celebrating with Flo, I always enjoy seeing them! They brought me this great gift, I didn't know how to open it to begin with, but I figured it out ;-)

Christmas begins!


John was very happy to have Gina, Kirk, and Kyle come and visit his house in Rochester. John is enjoying Gina's company here.

I'm SUPERMAN!!


Its a bird........its a plane.........its SUPER JOHN, protecting mom from the evil "cold monster" in Rochester!

Happy thanksgiving







John's first Thanksgiving was spent in Woodbury, at Aunt Christina and Uncle Eric's house. It was C+E's first Thanksgiving as well.........in their new house. thanks for hosting, we had a very good time. Grandpa and Grandma Trygstad along with Eric's parents Ruth and Richard celebrated together. Lots of good food, and a pound to the waist line ;-)) Thank you for inviting us to your house.






Normally, we would also head to Missouri as well, for the big weekend in Kansas City (MU-KU football!), but we waited this year in Minnesota because the following weekend was Uncle Adam and Aunt Lisa's engagement party, but John's first ear infection (the day of the trip) stopped us from attending. John is feeling better now, and we look forward to seeing A+L in person this weekend to celebrate Christmas!

Baptism







These are a little late, but john was baptized on All Saints Day. Father Joe did the baptism for us, and he only squirmed a little while it was going on. Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate the big day!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Merry Christmas from John and his first Christmas!! He's having a great time, not big on unwrapping gifts, but he enjoys the end results ;-)) Lots of toys showing up from everyone. Currently we are in Eldon Missouri with Natalie's family. We were going to spend Christmas Eve in Albert Lea, and leave Christmas Day for Missouri, but with the weather forecast we changed up plans and beat the storm out of Minnesota. We have had a good time here, and look forward to the re-scheduled Christmas in Albert Lea.

Lots of pictures and video to follow, Merry Christmas everyone!!
