2011 Holiday Season

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everybody!

This year, we have all of Mommy's AA friends at work to thank for all of the wine and champagne corks for our Christmas decor. Ella helped with making these cork decors for our green Christmas tree that we got from FUF SF this year.

Thank you for all the gifts!!! Ella doesn't know what to play with anymore.

We went to Great America to check out the Global Winter Wonderland for New Years this year.

Little Foofa fan got the best souvenir of the night courtesy of Daddy's darting skills.

Ella: I had FUN today!

Ella likes to sing

A little Thanks to give

As usual, we had a feast at Thanksgiving this year. While Grandma et al were busy preparing for the big meal, all the little people spent some time in the newly renovated basement movie room.








 


This year's feast was a pot luck. Thanks for making the yummy salmon wraps "kai yea!"



Ella helped mommy make these jam drop short bread cookies.



Finally it was chow time!



We also started our 1st annual Thanksgiving weekend Lord of the Rings marathon. Here are our rock avatars watching the "one ring" marathon.



Ella couldn't exactly sit through the whole thing yet, so she spent some time in her cardboard castle.



And jo jo fits in there too!



Over at Grand Uncle Dominic's house, there was a Santa's workshop churning out these cute little knit booties. Thank you! Mommy is still learning...
