Happy Holidays!

Christmas and new years has come and gone...crazy! We had an absolutely amazing holiday experience this past year...we made it up to norcal where we got to spend time with all of our siblings and some of our parents. Avery absolutely had a blast hanging out with all of our family which makes us very excited for the future of living up there (wow, not even so much the future anymore, tha day after tomorrow!!!) Avery had an amazing Christmas, with each present she ripped open she said, "oh wow!" which made her so enjoyable to watch. Despite the fact that we don't have pictures, she had an amazing time playing with her cousins (around her age) on Christmas Eve where they spent time sharing toys, giggling, and slamming doors:) Avery got so many toys that, while she opened them all, we're putting some away for the next few months at which point we'll bring them back out and she'll be excited about them once again:)

New years was great as well, Haley worked that day but got off early and surprised Andy by coming home to him early with a new phone for him. His service went well and we had a quiet night where we watched the 3rd movie in the twilight series, then snuck upstairs to wake up the baby to watch the ball drop. We all 3 shared the new years excitement together including snuggling and kisses between us all, Avery clutching Bob and ferociously sucking on her nuk wondering what was going on while us grown-ups had a few sips of champagne. We then put Avery back down and quickly went to bed. It was wonderful.

Here are some pictures from the events:
