Christmas Recap 2011

I'm a bit behind on uploading my pictures from the camera, so a Christmas update at the end of January will have to suffice.

We were so fortunate this Christmas to be able to spend some time with Grandma, as she came down to stay with us over the weekend. We are also very lucky that The Christians are closer to us when they visit their other set of grandparents, so it makes it easier on grandma to see more kids and grand kids. Aunt Jill, Uncle Spencer and Abigail and Emery came over Christmas Eve and what a treat to get to hang out with them. We ate warm soup and yummy chocolate dessert and they helped us sprinkle reindeer food on the lawn to prepare for Santa's arrival. We got to wake up Christmas morning with Grandma here! It was really special for all of us to spend Christmas together. Later that day, we spent the day with Gigi, Poppy and uncle Aaron too.

So not only was Christmas extra special this year with the inclusion of lots of family, but it was magical to see it through Ava's eyes especially. She was so excited to see the things she had asked for, set up downstairs on Christmas morning. Griffin was equally excited, although he hadn't a clue why he was supposed to be, haha. Such a memorable time for us all!
