What can I say-We LOVE our families and are so greatful for this holiday season. Only sad that it always seems to come and go so quickly!!

It has become a tradition to spend Christmas Eve night with Nana and Papa. The night started with a game of 'Don't Spill the Beans' followed by 1 early gift (okay 2) and dinner. As always we enjoyed the company and went home eager for Santa to arrive.

The celebrating continued with Christmas eve at home. First came home made blueberry waffles followed by gift opening! There was a lot to sort through as there were presents from Grandma Karen & Grandpa Al as well as Grandma Betty & Grandpa Dana. We had a lot of fun with all of our new toys and have a lot to be thankful for!! Thank You to all!!!

Christmas craziness...part 1




The very first part of our holiday season involved our neighbors and great friends in what I hope will become an annual tradition, our very first "Ugly Sweater Party." We were even able to get Finn involved and the funny part was, as tattered and ugly as the outfit was, he didn't want to take it off. So at the end of the day, he slept in it and even opened gifts in it the next morning! (more pics to come of that) We love Sarah and Josh and had a blast in sharing some wine and playing games. Can't wait to do it again next year!

Home arts and crafts






Visit w/Santa






We took a trip to Santas Village on Sunday and funny thing was, Finn wanted almost nothing to do with Santa but Emersyn was all about it! Nana and Papa were able to meet us over there and help out with the arts and craft tables they have set up for the kiddos. We were even able to make some reindeer food. Despite the "hot" candy cane, all in all it was a beautiful setting and a great start to our holiday season.
