Ski lessons
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’s art
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”
Christmas Eve
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!!!!
Meaning of 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….
