First Snow of the Season

It came a couple of days after Christmas but that is okay, we LOVE snow!

Cara was excited to make snowballs and throw them at Daddy

Christmas day 2011

The night before Christmas we got a plate ready for Santa and his reindeer!

The house was all ready and waitinf for Santa to visit!  We had stockings for Grandma and Grandpa Abbott and Aunt Cyndi who were all spending the night with us!

Santa came and left Cara a big red bag of gifts

The kittens knew they had toys and cat nip in their stockings

Unwrapping fun!

Yummo, a giant Reese cup!!

The main thing Cara asked for Christmas was Baby Alive, and Santa came through and she was so happy!

Great Grandma Edwards came over with Grandma and Grandpa Fox later in the day for a Christmas feast!

Christmas Eve with the Fox's

We spent Christmas Eve with the Fox's and enjoyed a fun day of presents, food and football games!

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care... the grown up kids stockings!

And the little kids stockings

Cara got a nurse Barbie

What a fun day!  Grandma and Grandpa Fox spoil us!!  Thank you for all our goodies!

Christmas Photos

We recently got our pictures taken for our 2011 holiday photos!  Hope you enjoyed them!

Christmas at the Zoo

 One of my most favorite holiday traditions is to attend Christmas at the Zoo!  I love seeing it all lit up and enjoying the magic of the holiday!

 We were joined by Grandma and Grandpa Fox, Aunt Cyndi and Grandma Abbott

 Petting the sharks!

 Cara's favorite part is going to the North Pole and decorating a cookie with Mrs Claus

 The hot chocolate was quite a hit on this chilly night!

Our night ended with a fun holiday themed Dolphin show!
