Christmas Eve and Morning

We had such a great Christmas. The boys are at the perfect age. Tons of anticipation for the actual day to arrive and the day lived up to their expectations. Thanks to Grandma, Grandpa, Nanny, Papa, Grandpapa, Aunt Kris, Michelle, and Justin, our tree was totally stocked.

Chris and I are looking forward to going to London in 13 days as our major Christmas gift. As for Christmas dinner - we made a ham and all the fixings for just the 4 of us. Chris called the ham "hot dog" and the boys actually ate it. So the whole day was a success. This really was a unique Christmas for us. Just our little family. No infants or young toddlers - it was very laid back.

We have tons of video, so as soon as I find a good place to post them - you can see that if you want.

We spent last Saturday with a family we love making and decorating cookies. It was fun and actually the first thing we have done this whole Christmas season to get in the Christmasy mood.

The Princess and the Frog

I loved it. Go see it. Thats all.

Plus - (you know I can never write a blog that short) I have been listening to the soundtrack (amazing) all day on lala . You get 50 songs for free. Its pretty sweet. I can send you an invite if you want.

First Snow of the Season

The boys enjoyed the first snow of the season. They woke up, put on their snow clothes, and went outside to play even before the sun was up. After an hour or so they came back in for hot chocolate and pancakes.
