Why Wait?

Why wait until Dec 25th when your Grandma & Grandpa can come do Christmas early??
Grandma & Grandpa Bossen came up the weekend before Christmas to celebrate with Drew. It was such a fun weekend hanging out and doing the Bossen Christmas traditions...Sweedish meatballs & all!

Speaking of Sweedish meatballs, Drew loved "rolling" meatballs this year. Really, he just stuck his hand in, but it was a great start to the tradition the Bossens have had for many years. I joined in when Andrew & I were dating, and we've done it every year since. We've learned many fun Sweedish things along the way in our meatball rolling adventures, like the term "Ufda" and singing the I Just Don't Give a Hoot song - which is more like "I yust don't give a huoot" when sung in a thick Minnesotan accent, of course!









Grandma & Grandpa came with all sorts of fun gifts for Drew. He got a shape sorting dump truck that plays all sorts of fun sounds, a caterpillar that makes a funny noise when you roll it, a "hitting" toy to pound balls through a hole with a mallet, and a big Radio Flyer rocking horse to ride on!!! We had a great weekend playing and celebrating the birth of Christ.
