Preparations for a Bountiful Christmas (pt1/3)

Eric and I spent the Christmas season last year getting ready to head to Costa Rica. It was beautiful. It wasn't Christmas. So this year, we decided to embrace all things Christmas, and this holiday surpassed all expectations! It was a full season. Full of family, gifts, celebrating, eating, Christmas lights and friends. Oh, and the flu. Luckily, Addy and I went unscathed, but Leigh was keeping track but lost count at 19 people infected. This post will be just our time in Denver, the good stuff you are looking for will be next.


Denver had an unseasonably warm December, which made for an enjoyable Winterfest on S. Pearl St. Have I mentioned I love my neighborhood? About 6 blocks from home we got to visit Santa, get a Christmas Tree and eat some tasty Pupusas.



We visited with Santa again at Eric's work Christmas party. Eric sat on Santa's lap with Addy, which merited an extra laugh being that Santa was really his British Co-Worker, who may weigh less than Eric.

There were about 6 GREAT babysitters at the party, too bad they live in Parker.

Mimi and Pops got Addy her own car! Who says they have to wait until 16?!?! Hopefully this sets a precedent for her teenage years.

We had a horrendously tacky tree this year. I guess at some point Christmas is more about Addy than me, right?

This picture makes me laugh.

I am just happy I found pictures of Addy with clothes on. Her new favorite thing is to be naked and to take off all of her clothes any time and any place.

She is the cutest baby I have seen in a long time. I miss her too much!
