This year we were able to fly out to Idaho to spend Christmas with my family. I always look forward to those trips and being able to spend time with family and friends. Aiden and I went out a little earlier then Paul so we could get in some extra family time. And that we did. Aiden had alot of fun with all his cousins and he sure didn't mind all the extra attention. His cousin Camree absolutely adores him and makes a very good "second mommy". I must say though, I was a little disappointed my second day out there when Paul called and said we were getting snow in North Carolina, when all it was doing in Idaho was melting. As tradition goes we spent Christmas Eve with my dad's family and Christmas morning with our family opening presents. Aiden didn't really get it this year but he sure had fun with the wrapping paper. Then we spent the rest of the day with my mom's family. With everyone having more kids it seems to get crazier and louder every year but thats the way we like it in the Korth house. I wouldn't have it any other way!
We flew home a few days after Christmas and spent some time with Paul's family. His mom and dad and sister Heather came and stayed with us through New Years so it was almost like a second Christmas. I am so glad they were able to come spend time with us and that we were able to see Heather for a bit. I am especially grateful for the time they get to spend with Aiden.

No, these are not all Aiden's presents, in fact only a few are his.
Aiden was completely mesmerized by Santa. At least until Santa dropped him. It really wasn't that traumatic. He went to put Aiden down on the floor and I think he though Aiden could walk. It was all ok in the end and Santa did feel very bad about the whole thing.

Looks like a fun time and there's no other way to do a Korth gathering other than a lot of noise. I don't think we would even know how to do it any other way. I didn't realize that you are living in NC. Jon just got a job with Bank of America in Charlotte, so we'll be heading out there as soon as he graduates. Where are you guys at? We'll have to get together. It will be nice to have a familiar face around, even if it's a couple hours away.
Haha that is funny about Santa dropping Aiden. Well hopefully the little guy will get some extra presents next year to make up for it.
