White Christmas in Colorado

We journeyed to Colorado for Christmas.

Where we saw:

Andrew, Paige, and Peter:



Taggart and Danielle:

And, of course, Mom and Dad:


We got to Colorado early enough that I was able to help prepare the house for the holiday festivities. I made cookies, wrapped presents, and helped my mom make tarts.

The boys enjoyed their sit-n-play piano, hanging out with grandma and grandpa, and checking out each other.




Beckett and Nate showed off their baby tricks.

On Christmas Eve Beckett opened his first present. Yum. Wrapping Paper.

On Christmas Morning:

Dad made breakfast.

Mom put out the stockings.

And the boys posed in their Christmas pajamas.

Apparently all that Beckett or Andrew really wanted for Christmas was this packaged nerd's rope.

But we gave them other presents anyway.


On Christmas night we ate dinner and played games with the Danahers, and Sean treated us to Avatar in 3-D on the 26th.

Beckett did pretty well on the car ride there and back. However, he struggled a little with the time change, the pack-n-play, and sharing a room with his parents. We were really tired for some of those days.

Little B also gave himself a present--one bottom tooth. Happy First Christmas, Beckett.

Hey Nate, does that jacket have zip-off sleeves?

Being the hulk that I am, I just ripped the sleeves off. It allows my biceps more room for flexing.
