Christmas 2009
We had a wonderful Christmas this year. It was really nice to spend so much time around our family, and this year our celebrations were so filled with joy and love with baby Josie around.
This year we started out with the traditional Christmas eve crab dinner and German Christmas eve traditions. Josie was so overwhelmed by all the action, but she did make it part way through the gift giving.
On Christmas day we headed over to the Yosts first thing in the morning, where we had a really nice and slow paced day.
Josie really enjoyed all her grandparents, aunts and uncles, and I think they enjoyed her, too. She got some fun toys, and a gorgeous hand knit sweater from my mom. We found out a few things that she likes, including music (she loved playing piano with Grandma) and meat (pork chop bone = big hit! and SNOW!
Also attached is a photo of the drawing Eric did for his parents as a Christmas gift, and the photo he drew it from. Incredible, eh?
