Kortus Christmas

We celebrated Christmas with the Kortus's early, since my brother and his family were going out of town.  My dad lost his dog, Harry about a week ago.  But my mom's silly dog, Buster was there to greet us... with his incredibly long tongue hanging out of his mouth (a typical look for Buster).

 Right after we opened gifts.. Ryan started playing with an empty box and Connor had a blast with the bubble wrap.  Simple joys!

 He made a wooden jewelry box for each of the girls and a horse
 

 And his toy... a Gatling gun with 50 rubber bands

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner with fantastic family!
 Nana and Grandpa got Connor a rock polisher, which he was very excited to start polishing rocks as soon as we got home.
 It came with a bunch of pretty (unpolished) rocks.
Jason and Connor assembling his new rock polishing machine... to add some more beautiful, shiny jewels to his collection.
