Getting Ready for Christmas

I'm leaving Friday to drive to Jonesville, South Carolina to celebrate Christmas with my inlaws and we will leave their home on Saturday to drive to Minnesota. This will be my first Christmas in Minnesota since 2001.

My mom is a bit worried if her house is Kallsen proof or not. My mom's house has been kid and baby proof but Kallsen is a whole other challenge. When my parents came to Rabun County to see their newest grandson Parker in October, they commented that of their six other grand sons, Kallsen is by far the most active and wild. Not that that's a bad thing. Kallsen just likes to climb and get into things. And he is persistent in getting what he wants. If he wants on the kitchen table, he will get on the kitchen table. If that mean pulling, dragging or pushing different things to the table to climb to get to the table top, that's what he does.

One of the things I'm hoping to do while in Minnesota is too take Joseph and Kallsen to Boone Hill to go sledding. We weren't able to sled in 2001 because it didn't snow until right before we left and the other times we've been in Minnesota when there has been snow on the ground has been for funerals.

I'm guessing that Joseph won't be able to climb the hill more than three or four times. It is steep and slick and fast.

I'll probable update the blog while in Minnesota.
