Ok...it's been a long time since I have updated the blog. I have been on mental vacation I suppose. December was a very busy month highlighted with the visit from Jon, Jill, Andrew and Avery! Our memories of Christmas include many things. Here is our top 10 list of Holiday Happenings.
1. Luke's Holiday program. He took it very seriously and marched in like a prince!
2. The 1 a.m. arrival of the Omaha Swansons. There was no way we would miss being there to pick them up. The arrival hug from Andrew to Luke was priceless.
3. Our annual Cinnabon eating tradition on Christmas Eve morning. Yum! Scott joined in on the pure sugar treat this year.
4. Making cookies for Santa. Of course, Avery's was pink!
5. Santa's visit at Aunt Amy's house. Luke was starstruck and told me how much he was shaking. Ryan was skeptical and even asked him while on his lap..."Are you real?"
6. The stampede down the stairs once the kids realized that it was Christmas morning. The squeals of pleasure when they saw the presents sitting by the fireplace was what we had hoped for. The three amigos became Seahawk football players while Avery was showered in more princess products.
7. Christmas morning brunch and present opening with the whole clan. The snow and a Blazer win made the day perfect.
8. The sleepover at Scott and Kiki's house in Olympia. Matt Damon, more egg casserole, and the visit with Swanson aunts, uncles, and cousins made for a fun weekend.
9. Cousins!!! The kids played so hard together that I hardly saw them. They all slept soundly at night!
10. Watching the Blazers win their 13th straight game from a SUITE. It was awesome...Go Blazers!!
