For Christmas Eve, we, and about 35 others, went to my Grandma Rach's house. Sticking with tradition, we sang Christmas carols and enjoyed catching up with everyone.
Some of the craziness.
Some of the cousins.
Little Bo practicing cousin Bridgette's trick, "levitation."
On Chritmas Day we stayed at my parents house for the Hasselberg family Christmas. This year we all wore Christmas sweaters, so Tuff and I got plenty of use from ours this year.

Sledding at the end of the day.
We also spent some time with my Grandpa and Georgia at the Care Center. This is where we got hooked on puzzles.
The next day we swung by my sisters house and checked out thier man made hockey rink.

Against the boards is the rink master, my dad. He makes sure the ice is ready for optimal skating.
Our trip to Minnesota was short but I did get a chance to see all my family, my friends the Rachels as well as Krista.
For the new year we traveled to Wheeling, West Virginia to meet up with our friends from Nashville, Mike and Leslie. We spent the night at Mike's dad's home. Below is the new years group photo.
On new years day we celebrated with a Polish tradition, sourkraut and pork. We also stayed in our pajamas the entire day and put together a 750 piece puzzle. Good times.
Puzzles will make you crazy!
On our drive back home we drove up to Mt. Washington to snap a picture of the Winter Classic hockey game going on. By this time it was raining pretty good.
Last night at high school ministry, Blitz, Tuff gave the message. He spoke on being a light to others in all areas of your life. "What happens in Blitz does not stay in Blitz."
