so this is Christmas...

What a fabulous two weeks this has been, we are so fortunate to be able to spend such long and lovely visits with our families. It is amazing to watch as Izzy interacts with cousins, laughing, playing and making memories. This is what Christmas is all about.

The girls in their fancy dresses!

Making Christmas cookies! Izzy was totally into it this year, and did a pretty good job!

Auntie Marla stopped in for a visit while we were making cookies and took a turn holding Lucy while our hands were dirty!

Me and the girls! Thanks to my sister for getting a picture of us together, it will be one of the few.

Sitting on the sleigh at the gardens.

Sisters!

Running time at Aunt Rah-Rah and Uncle Matt's on Christmas Eve! (Don't you love the reindeer footie pj's on Miles!)

Me and my Christmas "Goose".

Christmas Morning!

Brooke and Lucy

Gracie meeting Lucy! She was so interested, it was adorable!

Izzy modeling her new headband from Auntie Jordan!

A special gift from Ollie!

Lucy Goosey and her new hat from Nema, it even sparkles!

Meeting Auntie Kat!

Slowing down and chilling out with Nema.

Most of the Danielski grandchildren, minus Benjamin, he was not interested.

The Danielski boys were quite enamored with their little cousin, it was so sweet, she was treating them to huge grins and giggles!

Grammy and her goose!

Grace embracing Izzy, they had a 5 minute love fest, looking into each others' eyes and touching faces, it was quite adorable.

So we say good bye the Christmas holiday with hopes that next year we are able to make just as many memories to get us through the year!
