Christmas with the Emhofs

The weekend before Christmas day we went up to Grand Rapids to celebrate with Mom and Dad.  Unfortunately Steve, Joanna, and Henry were unable to join us this year.  It always feels strange to celebrate a holiday without my brother there. But I am sure they were happy not to have to deal with cross-country travel for the first time in many years! 

It is becoming an annual Christmas tradition for us to head to Meijer Gardens to see the reindeer, the beautiful Christmas tree display and of course the elaborate miniature train set!  Unfortunately this year the trains were only running for a short portion of the time we were there--who knew that miniatures could suffer from mechanical issues just like real trains?!?  There was still plenty to see, and we all had a great time.
