2013 Olson Christmas/Swedish Institute visit

Christmas with the Olsons was early this year but it got the ball rollin' for us and got us in the spirit.  The boys were spoiled as usual and had a crazy good time with cousins and second cousins.  The adults enjoyed a fun white elephant game thanks to Em.  I was so excited to win Grandpa Rol's old remote, which is ENORMOUS!  Instead of turkey, we did a breakfast feast and it was delicious.  Aunt Nancy got us ready for the Swedish Institute by making Swedish pancakes with Uncle Art.  Her gift to her great nieces and nephews was tickets to the institute.  We had a great time and can't wait to go back next year.  Love to all!


The boys love huggin' on Claire Bear

Grandma Millie and Avery snuggling

Uncle Eric and Tim trying to get Tim's dad's reel to reel working (some days we are lucky and others we aren't)

Listening to music at the Swedish Institute 

Beautiful!

There is a different fireplace in every room - very cool

The only two that would sit with Santa was Charlie and Grandma Millie

Aunt Nancy and Max have quite the bond lately.  wonderful to watch

The kids got to meet the snow princess and learn how to dance like a Christmas Troll

Time to make Christmas cards for our teachers.
