The Christmas holiday began early again this year up at GrandBob's and Lelly's house. We stayed Friday night in the "pooh" room, a.k.a. Jeff's old ice-box bedroom, so the girls could get up Saturday morning and open presents. The theory was good, except we made the mistake of thinking Aloryn and Elani could share a blow-up mattress upstairs together. The combination of "Propeller Legs Elani" as Nea called her, and "Jabberbox Aloryn" as we call her didn't make for a successful slumber party. Aloryn eventually ended up in her pop-up crib in our room, Elani ended up with her legs on the blow-up bed and her face on the floor. We all took naps the following day. As usual Lelly did a great job with the food, presents, accommodations, and her caffeine control. I was impressed with Dad too, he only complained of the noise twice.
The best part about Christmas was watching how the girls played with each other.

"Pink Belly! Pink Belly! Pink Belly!"

When your arms get tired you have to get creative.

Santa's stunt double even made an appearance.

Lili spent most of Christmas in mom's lap and did great.

8 inches of snow, one sunny day, warm clothes, sled with rope, hyper children, and a 4-wheeler...let the fun begin.




Whoops! Turns out that big bump was a sprinkler head.

Never turn you back on a loaded snowball!

Looks like we missed a good time. I love Les's snow suit.
Little Lili is growing so much.
Are the girls feeling better?
