I don't think there is anything more comforting than Christmas with your family. Christmas is magical and fun - add your family and it's all the better. Every time we go home (Christmas or not) my parent's don't hold back on the fun (and food), and there really isn't much resistance from us girls. I guess it's their tactic - leaving us always wanting more.
I'm glad to say that I assisted in Colin's first white Christmas. Seattle was so white and full of snow we we're actually worried we would never make it. While cabin fever did set in around day 3 we still loved every minute. I can regret the extra lbs later...
Lets Start it off with double of the girl who
has never shied away from the camera!!!
She takes so many pictures it drives her husband to drink!
(J/K - it's one of the many root beers consumed)
Dad and his girlfriend Lilly
Hey Mom, I know about this party....
Colin's first snow man (well, Hockey Man)
Adam, the snow native, showed him how it is done.
Mama getting ready for WhirlyBall.
WhirlyBall involves electric carts, plastic scoops, a wiffle ball,
and apparently when you play with competitive boys, lots of bruises.
We were all still friends in the end.
Dad making his famous pancakes
Snow from the Car
It's tradition to all get pedicures together while we're home...
Yep, even the boys!
Sisterly Love
Bro-Mance
(they were sharing the blanket before I took the picture)
Girls doing a little shopping
Laura couldn't pass up another photo-Op
All that fun was exhausting...
Close your mouth Mary!
Thanks Mom and Dad for a Great Christmas!

I'm sad I missed out on your Bellevue party. I miss you girls. Whirley ball sounds awesome. I'm going next time I go home.
We are coming to visit you over Valentine's weekend. Let's make a date. I'll let you play with my baby if you give me some of that salsa you raved about!
