Merry Christmas!

I hope your day was as magical as ours.

Pillow Pets from NaNa

Three years ago I made a music video with my family LATE christmas night, HERE.  Ever since then we've talked about doing it again.  We finally did it again and had a blast.  Since my sister already has it on facebook, I'll post it here. Merry Christmas.

Santa Party









2010 Christmas Tree

Looking for the right tree.

The tree is down. 


Waiting back at the truck

The children were very helpful getting the tree into the truck. Kate was especially helpful. 

Success. 

It was a beautiful, special day I hope I don't ever forget. 

Skating with Santa 2010

 We only go ice skating once a year when we go to my moms work Christmas party. It's become a favorite tradition. 

The kids always need a lot of help in the beginning.  

Grayson and Lydia took a lot of falls.  But, they kept getting up and trying again. I love how Grayson is concentrating so hard his tongue is out. 

Taking a break for donuts and hot chocolate. 

By the end of the night they were pro's.

We tried to keep Clair off the ice, but eventually she won.  She liked to be dragged between my legs, with her feet on the ice. 

Kate enjoyed many superman rides with uncle BoBo. 

We always leave wondering why we don't do it more often.
