Christmas 2012

 
 
I realize I still haven't posted pictures from our trip to FL in early December, but I might as well do one update in a timely fashion and share our Holiday photos now!  It was a little different being in Colorado and we definitely missed our family celebrations, but we made the best of it.
 
 
Wouldn't be xmas without a tree, note to self: need bigger tree next year!

Decorating the tree


We exchanged gifts a week early with the Rudolph family via Facetime-not quite the same, but still fun.




The day of the aforementioned gift opening, Nora woke up with a swollen ankle and wouldn't walk on it all day, so that afternoon we took her to the hospital-she came back just like Mommy with a boot!  She only wore it for a week, and even that was just for good measure.  She's good as new now.

Christmas Eve:



Sprinkling 'reindeer dust (oatmeal and glitter)' outside so the reindeer could find out house when flying overhead.

Tracking Santa on the Ipad on NORAD


All set!
 Christmas morning:



Not sure what this was all about, but a funny picture



As mentioned, we woke to snow on Christmas morning.  Nora couldn't wait to get out and play in it and it was Ellis' first exposure!



 
 
Looking forward to a trip to Utah in two weeks to see the Koski family, then a visit from Claire and Jason the following weekend!  Merry Christmas!
