Christmas at Papa and Great-Grandma Schnittker's House

Every year, Nick's extended family gets together at Papa and Grandma Schnittker's house and there has always been a special visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus. It is so fun to see the excitement of the little ones when Santa and Mrs. Claus walk through the door. I can't wait to see what Evan's reaction will be like next year when he gets to sit on Santa's lap. He didn't seem to like it this year as you can tell in the following pictures.

A Visit From Mimi!

Nick's mom lives in Arkansas so she is unable to see her grandchildren in Ohio as often as she would like. She made the trip to Ohio last week and was able to see Evan in person for the first time. She was so excited to see not only Evan, but Emily and Mason as well. They were just as excited to get to spend so much time with their "Mimi!"
