Merry Christmas


Merry Christmas! What a fun Christmas this has been with Benjamin.


One of my family traditions is to have beef stew for Christmas Eve dinner. Ben had a plate-full and loved it!


He didn't really care too much about presents or the wrapping paper. He does love gift bags though.


We got a white Christmas! Yeah. The forecasters were predicting 1-3 inches, then 3-6 inches, then trace amounts and we ended up with something between 3-6 inches. We took Ben out to explore it and he hated it. I don't know whether it was the snow or the freezing cold temperature. It took us 20 minutes to get all bundled up, we stayed outside for about 3 minutes, and then I was left with a pile of wet clothes at the door. Oh well.



We checked out the snow again on Christmas morning because it is just so pretty.


Santa brought Ben all his fun toys unwrapped so he could explore them this morning. He loves it all! Thank you to all our friends and family that sent so many really cool gifts. And, we know there are so many more to come as we travel soon.


Here is a two and a half minute video of clips from last night and this morning. Enjoy.

Merry Christmas! Love all of the pics and stories with them. Sorry he didn't like the snow yet, but hopefully one day you won't be able to get him to come inside!
