Merry Christmas!

One thing that we are very thankful for this year is to only have to drive a couple hours to see our family for the holidays. In the past we have either flown and had someone pick us up in the airport or drove the 10+ hours across the mid west. This is exactly the change we had been hoping for and are so glad to call it our reality. It has been a very blessed 2010! Merry Christmas to all our family and friends, we love you!
Last night we had our family Christmas at home before we take off to visit our immediate and extended families. Chloe got a baby bed and loved being able to put her baby to bed and feed her milk.
She played for an hour and all I had to do was sweep up the floor! She had so much fun!
Chloe's cooking and baking didn't last as long as I had work to do. So she got to play a fun activity we learned about in this great book our friends have and swear by. She was drawing in the flour, her favorite things to draw were a farm, cows, chickens, butterflies, gramma, grandpa, mommy and daddy:)
And you always have to take a few licks while baking too;)
It has been a very busy middle of the week. Chloe and I had a lot of cooking and baking to get done before the Christmas weekend. Chloe is such a big helper in the kitchen:) Here she is stirring the pumpkin bread.

Tuesday evening Uncle Rich came over to help Jason celebrate passing his exam. Thanks for the goodies and for spending the time with us, we all had a great time, even frogger;)
