Christmas - Round 3 &4

Round 3 was at Nate's Parents house! We had a very nice dinner, read the Christmas story, and opened gifts. We spent the night there and got to hang out some more the next day (Christmas morning) before flying out to WA that night.

Christmas morning baths!

Here comes round 4...

Flying to WA!

Out for a walk in the beautiful Washington air...

The next few pictures got out of order and I just can't get this thing to work.. ugg! So anyway, these are pictures of our visit to the Capital building.

Hangin out...

And the gift giving begins!

Alissa and Erik's gift to us all was: tickets to see White Christmas at the 5th Ave Theatre! (And free babysitting!) It was absolutely wonderful!

Grandma and Grandpa's gift to the kiddos was a day at the Children's Museum and Spaghetti Factory lunch! (So we got to enjoy it too:) We also took a stop at the Capital since we were right there.

Woops, this one is from White Christmas:)

Grandma and Grandpa also treated the adults to dinner and babysitting! mmm.. BJ's!

Black Diamond...

It was definitely a Christmas to remember. Time with family is so sweet. And we recognize that it is all because of Christ that we are able to be united in love, sharing in the joy of His birth, death, and resurrection.

Christmas - Round 1 and 2

Round 1 took place at our house on Monday, Dec. 21st. Our friend, Kristi, came over to visit for the day and brought presents from her parents and her. When Nate got home from work we celebrated! I didn't get any pictures, but here's our ugly fake tree that actually turned out pretty nice!

Round 2 took place at my parents house on Christmas Eve. We stopped there on our way to Nate's parents house so the kids could open gifts from Great Grandma, and one from Grandma Joyce and Grandpa Fred that was too big to take with us to WA (which is where we had "Christmas" with my side of the family). Enjoy the pictures below of the kids and Great Grandma Richardson.

This is the big gift... It is an Easel has a while board on one side and a chalkboard on the other. It also has a roll of paper at the top so you can pull paper down and either color or paint on it! It's really neat and Alex has been coloring up a storm lately!

Trying to get "that" Christmas Family Photo

Enjoy the blurps and the good stuff...

Thanksgiving 2009

We actually didn't get a single picture of Thanksgiving this year, if you can believe that! It was, however, an amazing day. Once again we spent Thanksgiving at the Richardson house with lots of family. It was the: Enns, Swamidass, Enns, Richardson, Humphreys, Richardson Clan! We ate, visited, ate, sang and shared things we were thankful for, ate, and visited:).

I was able to shoot a picture of some of us before Chris and Katie headed home that weekend.
