Christmas 2008

Well Christmas has come and gone for another year and I am, as always, amazed at how quickly it passes by. This year it was time to make the trek to Kirkland with all the kids and spend the holiday at my Mom's. We got over the pass just under the wire, 90 minutes after we crossed the state closed I-90 for most of the next day. Good thing we left early.

On Sunday, we met our friends Heidi and Owen at Bel-Square for running around adn pix with Santa. We also had to get Mom out of the house for the first time in a week. It seems that Seattle and the surrounding communities have forgotten how to clear snow from the roads, parking lots, and any other surface that humans may use for transportation. I guess in the eyes of those in control of such things; if we were meant to get around in such horrible conditions man woudl have invented something to take care of the problem....like a snow plow maybe?

Christmas morning was awesome, Santa was VERY good to the kids and they were super excited to see if Santa had listened to their wishes...

Judging from this little guys reaction, I think the answer is a resounding yes!

Just try prying these gifts out of their hands...I dare you....
