New Years Eve

We enjoyed a very fun and festive New Years Eve with our friends the Kusak's and the Sams. Jodi made a wonderful dinner and we enjoyed chatting while the kids played.

Christmas Day

Merry Christmas Avery!

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, Avery and I spent the day with my family while Aaron was at work. She previewed her presents and looked at all the decorations around the house. We went out to dinner with the Cohens, then fell fast asleep!

Meeting Santa

This picture perfectly sums up Avery's first trip to meet Santa.

RSV

On the third night of Hanukkah, Avery was very ill and we had to take her to the ER at Childrens Hospital. She was given this little mask to wear. It took about two weeks, but she made a full recovery!

Hanukkah

On the second night of Hanukkah, we went to a party at Avery's school then over to the Cohen's to celebrate. Avery dressed in her new Burberry dress and Uggs (thank you Aunt Janis!) and we headed out!
Avery had a few fussy moments...
...but regained her composure to open some gifts and light the Hanukkah candles.

Christmas Prep

Getting ready for Christmas is hard work!

We spent the day looking for the perfect Christmas tree...

(which, as you can see, passed inspection)
...and hung the holiday lights on the house. What a day!
