Will, Audrey and I are in ski school every week for the next 8 weeks. It was tough getting back out there after a year, but after a couple hours I had a decent run.
Then we have so much fun together just playing in the snow.
Like I said, a little wobbly
While we were skiing, Annabel ran into some other friends who had baby skis that she could try.
She went down a hill too!
And at the end of the day, I said “everything is sore except my phalanges.”
Annabel had fun this morning making her first happy face ever with no help:
Then she made a picture of her best friend Audrey:
Then a bunny
Then “just some hairy guy”
Thanks to all our fans who stuck with us for our countdown for Christmas. It’s Christmas Eve and a lot of interesting things were happening here as we waited for Santa.
Tio John got a Serrano ham
And then made homemade beer while the pork was roasting
Dad rented an RV
Cousin mark took apart a computer
There was decorating
And wine tasting
And hugging (Annabel and Tito- our great grandpa)
A pretty table
A surprise present
A song
And visions of sugarplums!
Merry Christmas!!!!
At bedtime tonight:
Mom: Do you guys remember the Christmas story? And the true meaning of Christmas?
Me: Tell us the story!
Mom: Well, is Christmas all about Santa?
Me and Annabel: Noooo….
Mom: Is it all about presents?
Me and Annabel: Noooo…
Mom: Well, then do you remember what it’s all about?
Me: Yes! It’s all about being together with our family….
Today we spent an entire day in the car to get to my Tia Karen’s house where we will spend the next week. We love driving!
We started about 4:30am:
Along the way we saw some crazy stuff:
Got to sunny California by midday.
Ate at a Mexican restaurant for a late dinner
And made it to the BaycArea
And promptly conked out the last leg of the trip.
No fuss, no drama, no problems! A great road trip with cousins at the end!
