We arrived at my parents house on Christmas night. We had such a good time there. We stayed for 3 days and it was oh so relaxing. I kept telling Mike that I was pretending we were at a snowy woodsy retreat house (and we sorta were... the service and price and setting were perfect!) Mom cooked and cleaned, even did our laundry and I hardly lifted a finger- that was the best part.
We were welcomed with this wagon full of gifts!
Lily wore her pretty new outfit from Aunt Carrie :)
We did gifts the next day.. Lily's big gift was a baby doll... her smile in seeing the "beebee" was so precious
Lily's new motion/sign for "where?" or "what?" (hands & tongue!)
On Sunday, Lily and I got all bundled up for an outting with the guys... but by the time we got out there, they were no where to be found. So we enjoyed the snow on our own. :)
Isn't it so pretty?!
Lily wasn't a big fan of actually standing in it... she just wanted to be held- who can blame her?! It was to the top of her boots (not much to the CO and MN relatives!)
On Mon eve, P&L's third set of grandparents arrived for their fourth gift opening session... slightly spoiled I ask?
Peter got Raggedy Andy for his second Christmas, so this year Lily got Raggedy Annie.
and fun Melissa and Doug toys... always a hit!
Lily LOVED her stacking rings--- I am hopeful this means she'll be neat and organized ;)
Their most fun gift was this tent and tunnel... Daddy joined the fun...
it looks like he's being eaten by a giant caterpillar!!
Not sure what we're doing here but a happy pic with my 2 fav men :)
The final day there was my favorite- that will be its own post :)
Thanks Mom and Dad for "pouring into us" & serving us to replenish our love tanks!!
