This year we had a great time celebrating Christmas with my family. It was especially fun because our niece was REALLY into opening gifts!! It was fun to see Christmas through her eyes this year.

| I don't know who enjoyed uncle Jake's gift more Dad or Alaena? |
 |
My parents dog Tucker... as a joke and to get my dad all riled up we (I) like to dress him up in something ridicules!!
This year, he had his own PJ's!! Sad thing is, he really like them! |
 |
| Alaena the bear scaring my dad... tucker is not amused! |
This Christmas Dan and I decided we didn't want to go just buy gifts. We wanted to do something special, something that would create lasting memories. Working in hospice I really got to see how precious time is. So.... we decided that we would rent a condo up north over new years and have everyone join us for their Christmas gift!!!!
 |
| A favorite game was hide and seek (meet sleeping bear) |
 |
| The wild awake bear |
 |
The pool was a hit!
Not sure who enjoyed it more... |
 |
| Uncle Jake helping Alaena keep Dan away |
 |
| The view from our condo |
 |
Lots of games and movies
Alaena loves Beauty and the Beast |
 |
| We were driving on the island in Duluth and found this home that sets up lights and lets people walk through their yards. It was fun and the view was breath taking |

| View from their dock |

| Jess fit right in!! |
After the weekend we decided that this would be a new tradition.
Looking forward to next year!!
