Christmas 2011 Part V: Fergus Falls

After Summer's nap on the 30th we picked up Daddy at work and took off for Fergus Falls to spend time with Paul's side of the family.  It was so much fun to have everyone together...Uncle Jordan was home from college, Uncle Ty and Auntie Sarah were there, and as always, Summer loved seeing Grandma, "Gumpa", "Bante" (Uncle Javonte), and all the dogs.  Tucker too had fun romping around with dogs Annie and Bode.  We welcomed in the new year together, and then on Sunday, Paul, Sarah, and Jordan sang together during communion---the three siblings sounded so good together!  You can see a video of it below.  Besides celebrating Christmas, and lots of good food, we played lots of team video games and board games!  Another Tommerdahl highlight--Summer got her first mini soccer ball and enjoyed kicking it all over!  We drove home on the afternoon of Monday January 2nd.  Here are a few pictures.

Summer loves playing with the same train Daddy played with when he was little!  You can see it in the background of this picture.
