Christmas Time

December was a great month at our house! We had the house decorated, much of the shopping done and left a lot undone that we normally might do because of our new little guy. Christmas Eve was spent with the Howells and we had a great time- an early lunch with the nativity, compliments, great dessert and an early night which is good because Christmas Eve never ends early at our house. Here are just a few shots of what went on before the actual day!


AIDAN MARK HOWELL was named on Christmas Eve- Whew!!! Fastest record in naming a child for us!


The Nativity on Christmas Eve with the Howells- Ethan as the angle/shepherd and Ava as Mary


An extra SPARKLY Mary and Joseph in the Nativity



Ava during her Christmas program at Draper Theater! She still practices singing for her program and refuses to let anyone join her!


Ethan the Powder Maniac- His parka somehow got left at home, but it didn't deter him a bit. He skied in the powder all day and never wanted to go home- like father like son I guess.



Merry Christmas!!!
