Annual Heitman Christmas Party

Every year we celebrate with Great Grandma Heitman and the rest of Steve's Aunts & Uncles and cousins on his Mom's side of the family. All of the great-grandkids receive presents from Great Grandma and sing her Christmas carols before they are able to open them. We love getting together with everyone each year - it's amazing how big all of the kiddos are getting!!

Mission accomplished :)

Merry Christmas!!

Andrew had a blast Christmas starting from the moment he woke up!! We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas Mass in the morning with lots of music - Andrew especially liked the trumpet. And then a day full of celebrating and opening more presents unfolded. We spent the afternoon at PaPa and Gigi's and then headed over to Great Aunt Barb and Uncle Dennis's for the evening. Andrew loves each and every one of his presents - he doesn't know which to play with first!!

Christmas Eve

We had a wonderful time Christmas Eve with the Vehige side of the family. Andrew loved all of the excitement - playing with his cousins, opening presents, singing Christmas carols and eating all of the delicious food!! We hope everyone is enjoying the holidays with family and friends.
