Merry Christmas 2009!!!

We spent this Christmas with my parents and Sarah and Kelvin in Washington. We had so much fun. It was very relaxed, and the kids got to play, play, play!!! (We did too actually) There was about a half inch of snow on the ground- just enough for it to be nice and slick. We went sledding just about every day! What a great time with family. My parents had just as much fun sledding as the kids did, I think!

See what I mean?! My mom is on a teeny tiny sled she ordered online- they were fun, but you got sore!

Here's a better picture of the sleds. The kids loved them!

I love watching Adam with the kids. Vacations are so nice!

It's Christmas morning!!!

Ashton was quick to dump everything out of his stocking- then he started eating his "flamin' hot cheetos", and nerds candy- good healthy breakfast!

Livi crashed and was so cute snuggling up to Adam

Cute hat that Santa brought Ella- and she wouldn't put down her new MP3 player.

Of course the kids had to have a ride on Danny!

This little girl was having fun in the snow!

Christmas dresses! Ohhh my girl's looked so pretty!

This is the best picture I could get out of my boys. :) They did look very handsome in their matching ties.

Ok- no one was in the mood for another picture- but we had to for posterity!

And we celebrated Aaron's birthday ( a little early) It's on New Year's Eve. Grandma made an amazing cake for Aaron.

Look at that cake! It is Spiderman defeating Doc Oc by shooting out webbing, while standing on green grass- this was a tall order from Aaron, but Grandma is amazing, of course!

We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year!!
