A Very White Christmas...

Our 2nd week into December brought A LOT of snow. I, for one, LOVE snow. It's probably because I grew up in California and lived just 1-2 hours away from some great slopes...I was born to love it. My family would go skiing at least a few times every winter. We were all into it. I was put into lessons when I was just a little older than Teigen. I loved it.....and it's actually very sad to me that I haven't been in a long time. (Not Justins favorite) ;) And we have small kiddos. ;)
Anyway...we got a lot of snow....which meant....sledding and snowman building (which I'm finding to be very difficult with this dry snow that we have here!) Does NOT compact well.
We still had a great time. Here are some photos of our fun...Mom made a slope for Teigen on the driveway that worked out fabulously...Of course mom had to try...And then dad....and Sophie...because she had to make sure dad was ok...that girl... It wasn't good enough for mom....so pregnant belly and all, hopped the fence....

And Teigen wanted to join...

So we went down the hill together...you can't see Teigen's face...but let's just say mom made him face his fears...head on...;)
CHRISTMAS....I mean Christmas eve!!! ;) We had a great time just the 4 of us, well almost 5...woah....that just sounded weird saying that.

Here are our photos of our blissfull Christmas eve morning....Santa brought Teigen punching gloves...Santa brought Chase an airplane...Gramps and Susu gave Chase a fun little people farm...oh and he also has a mouth full of honeycomb...he couldn't wait to eat...Loves this...Nana and Papa recorded their voices reading a "Cars" book...the boys loved it! So cool!Basketball from Adam&Lauren&kids...Leapfrog Leapster 2 from mommy and daddy...(loves his games from Gramps & Susu to play this with)...Poor Daddy had to work on Christmas...but their station invited all the families over for dinner and visiting...

We had a fabulous Christmas this year...a little unconventional, but wonderful...maybe even better.

We hope you all had a great Christmas remembering our Saviors birth and find peace and joy in the NEW YEAR!!! Love to all!
