Christmas Day 2012

Christmas Day in the Johnson household was interesting this year to say the least. A few days before Christmas we went to visit my sister and John in NH. On the way home, Patrick got very sick. He had a brief period on Christmas Eve where he felt better so I thought he was on the mend. Boy was I wrong! Be started throwing up again at the end of the party. Poor boy continued to be ill all through the day. Of course on Christmas, both Kenny and Renee became sick as well. We tried to make the best of it. The kids loved opening their presents from Santa. They both got excactly waht they asked for. Both Kenny and I loved our gifts as well. They kids painted me birdhouses, which I can't wait to hang in the spring. After gifts at our house, we went to my Mom's. Both my brother and sister were there. The kids had fun, but tired quickly. Both Kenny and Renee started to get very sick. I brought them home and put them to bed. Patrick stayed with my parents for a while, and flew his new helicopter. Later in the day Kenny's parents came over. We did gifts quickly, but then had to send them on their way, because both the kids started throwing up again. Not the best Christmas we've had, but certianly the most interesting.

More Christmastime fun

Every year since Patrick has been born, we've been trying to get to the Dighton Tree lighting because my dad drives Santa's train. However, something always comes up. This year we were actually able to go. It was absolutly freezing, but the kids had a great time. They were part of the live nativity scene. Then, they were able to ride on Santa's train with Papa and Daddy.Renee even sat with Santa.
