our Christmas part I

After going to dinner last night with Bruce, Julie, Christina & Isaiah, our family of five gathered in the living room to exchange gifts. 

Osten’s favorite gift was X Box Gold 

Katie’s favorite was new sunglasses and jewelry 

Anders favorite is his new iPhone 

Brad’s favorite is his new wooden map wall hanging of Snowbank Lake

And my favorite are mug new Steeger Mukluks from Ely, MN

As always, being with family is the paramount gift. I’m eager to see family in the next couple weeks…the Olson/Swanson/Moritz/Quintana branch first and the Blomgren/Olson branch on January 8.
