Christmas 2008

Merry Christmas!


Alexis was happy to sit in the vicinity of Santa, as long as someone else was actually holding her...


Christmas Eve is not complete without a little bit of crying in the corner...


Look! Santa took a bite out of the cookies!


Opening the big gift...



Lots of great presents!

Christmas Card

Well, we made a valiant effort to take a new Christmas card photo this year... and ended up using an old picture instead. Here are some of our better attempts...



Las Vegas Trip

After a long delay, I am finally posting the pictures from our Las Vegas trip that we took a few weeks ago. I will blame the delay on Christmas preparations, baby preparations, and falling asleep on the couch when I should be making posts. We did a very bad job taking pictures during our trip, so I'll do my best with what we have.

Alexis LOVED the fountain show at the Bellagio!


We got to pet some stingrays at the Shark Exhibit at MGM Grand.


Checking out the gator...


Coolest park ever!
It was nice to be able to visit a park in the middle of November.


Gramma Debi and Alexis by the giant Christmas Tree. Santa had a little house behind the tree, but Alexis wanted no part in visiting him.


Pretty girl in her new dress from Gramma Debi and Grampa Joe!


Resting on the quilt and pillowcase that Gramma Debi made.
