Christmas in Pennsylvania

We arrived in Pennsylvania on December 23rd after two days of travel. We were thankful to arrive in time for dinner that night so that we could visit with our cousins from Florida.

 

We ate a delicious dinner of sub sandwiches, and we had lots of fun catching up with everyone!

The next morning, we all went over to the nursing home to visit Grandma. I think it meant a lot to her to have the whole family there with her.

Nursing homes sometimes need young people to liven things up a bit. J The girls had fun pulling out silly hats to wear around the home.

That afternoon and evening was spent relaxing at the house and watching a movie. We continued our tradition and had pizza for dinner since it was Christmas Eve.

 

On Christmas morning we all headed over to the nursing home again to open gifts with Grandma.

Our annual family picture. We really appreciated the nurse who was willing to stop and take the photo for us.

This year since both families were coming in from out of town, we kept Christmas dinner easy and ordered the Farmhouse Feast from Bob Evans. It was all really good (even though they accidently gave us turkey instead of ham.)

We went to bed early that night because we were going to try to leave early the next morning to beat the snowstorm on our way to Ohio.
