Merry Christmas

 

Unfortunately, this Christmas Abigail was suffering from a nasty bout with a cold/flu messy virus. On Christmas morning she was running a temp of about 101 so we let her sleep in as long as possible, hoping that she would be a ray of sunshine for her Santa presents. We let her sleep/lay in our bed until 10 am on Christmas and finally coaxed her downstairs to open Christmas gifts. She was not a happy camper. At least until we opened her stocking and found bubbles from Santa. He also brought a Minnie Mouse tent, Minnie Mouse doll and big girl panties. Abby got a few outfits from her grandparents and aunts and uncles too. By the end of present time she was in a great mood and snuggled down for a nap with Daddy.

 

Christmas evening we went to Paula & Rod's house for Christmas with the Linds. Sally Kate and Abby had a big time playing together and their cousin DC even let them play on his drum set. We were glad to be able to shut the door on that fiasco! Abby got more great gifts from her aunt & uncle Linds. What a great Christmas!

Much Love,

Festival of Lights

Every year a local park in Fort Smith puts on a tremendous light show. It includes walking trails to explore the larger than life light displays and even has a train that winds through a lot of the pieces. We visited the park last year at this time, but didn't get to ride the train because it wasn't running when we visited. Fortunately, this year we stopped at just the right time and got to ride the train and look at all the awesome lights. It wasn't too chilly (surprisingly) so we just bundled in light jackets and we were all nice and cozy.

Abby visits Santa Claus...

and it didn't go so well as you can see from the picture. She's also been a little sick the last few days as well so that doesn't help either. Regardless, we are excited to celebrate another Christmas with our little family.

Snow Days

The past four days we've been snowed in due to all the ice and snow that fell on Thursday and Friday of this past week. Abby's school was closed both Thursday and Friday. So daddy and mommy took turns working from home and watching Abs. After the snow finally stopped falling, we took Abby out to play and she LOVED it. Once she figured out that she could eat the snow and icicles she was in heaven. We even took a little time to make her first snowman. She was a great helper getting the snowman put together. She enjoyed it so much that she didn't want to come inside.

Much love,

Moises & Jennifer

 

 

Christmas Decorating

This is the first year that Abby can really get involved in decorating for Christmas and she loved it. She was very particular about the placement of the ornaments and even the ornaments that she wanted to put on the tree. She stuck with the decorating until every ornament was on the tree. Mommy was so proud because she loves decorating for Christmas too!

Much love,
