Christmas with the Backes Clan


We just had non-stop Christmas fun these past couple weeks! Last weekend, all the Backes clan came up to celebrate Christmas! Trent, Michelle, and Austin came up last Friday. Landon and Austin had a BLAST playing together!! Austin got a bounce house for Christmas, and Michelle and Trent brought it for the boys to jump in during the visit. They loved it! We put it in the basement (which is currently empty) along with Landon's tractor! Such fun!

On Friday night, we went to Chuck E. Cheese. Not only did Landon and Austin have tons of fun riding rides and playing the games, but the adults loved Chuck E.'s too! 

Bounce house fun!!



Landon did not want to stop bouncing for a picture! :)

The boys loved taking turns pulling each other in the tractor!

Aunt Chelle and Owie are ready for Chuck E. Cheese!

The Dads are just as excited as the boys! :) 


Landon's favorite ride was the monster truck!!




The horse was Austin's favorite ride!






Daddy loves playing basketball with the Lan Man!





There are no rules at Chuck E. Cheese!

 Taking a QUICK break for pizza!


Back in the monster truck!







This place is crazy!!


Cashing in our tickets! The boys had enough for a sticker and a candy!


On Saturday, my parents, Emily, and Hunter came up to celebrate Christmas. My parents bought the boys lots of presents, but the most special gift of all was the table that my Dad made. It is absolutely beautiful and took him hours and hours of work to design and complete. (I plan to write a post in the next couple weeks with the story behind this special table. So be on the lookout...)My Mom added baskets to the table and filled them with lots of arts and crafts supplies. Landon loves to "color" (I wish you could hear him say this word--it's super cute!), so he just loved the table and all the art supplies! Saturday night, we cooked at the house and stayed up late snuggling and playing!




The beautiful table!

The boys love their tables!


Austin got Landon and Owen an awesome tent for Christmas!
