Christmas 2010

Christmas morning!  Opening presents! Brunch! Playing! Togetherness!

Delaney made us a handprint calendar, which we LOVE!

Sarah and Jeff came into town on New Year's Eve to celebrate the holidays with us!  They gave Delaney a skimboard for Christmas!

December 16, 2010

Nana and Papa brought us to Disney for this special event for our Christmas present this year!  We had just been in October, but the girls loved it so much!  They have hot chocolate, cookies, applejuice, etc as you walk around, and it SNOWS on Mainstreet.  The number of tickets sold is limited, so there were hardly any lines for the rides!  Delaney rode on Splash Mountain for the first time, and Lucy went on Goofy's Rollercoaster!  We had a great time and it was a LATE night!

Delaney and Lucy's Big Sister Class

Delaney and Lucy took a "Big Sister" class at the hospital, where they learned to swaddle and diaper a baby!  They were very excited and even got a tour of the maternity ward!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Everyone has been so sick around here lately!  It started with Delaney (and most of her class at school), then went to Lucy, then Kenny, and last but not least...me!  Lucy ended up getting ear and eye infections, too!  Kenny and Delaney stayed home from our Thanksgiving Dinner at the Morgan's because they were sick!  We ended up doing our own "belated" Thanksgiving Dinner once we all felt better!
