Merry Christmas to all!! We had a nice long two weeks of holiday vacation, with Kyle off for most of it with us. We packed in the fun times this year, it is sooooo exciting to get a taste of "big kid" freedom that we are now experiencing. Marcus is our little caboose, and we all rally to get that rascal to understand all the fun :) Such a blessed season in our family life. High on our bucket list for our family time, we did lots of fun cooking projects with the kids. Cookies (of course), gingerbread house decorating, Gran's rosettes. home made pretzels, breakfast in bed for Mom (sooooo sweet), Marin perfecting her scrambled eggs, chocolate chip banana bread, chocolate covered pretzels, and a whole bunch of other things I forgot because it's now mid-January :) Marcus was the official taster.
Extended family time - Christmas week with Kyle's side, and New Year's week with my side. Lots of trips to Vancouver and Portland, and a houseful with my family here. Lots of walks, bike rides, eating, laughing, presents, togetherness! I loved every minute!
