Christmas Break

Wow, where do we begin??? The past two weeks have been packed full of friends, family and lots of fun! Luckily we had a nice long break and spent it at Pop and Grandmas! It was great being able to spend so much time with Pop and Grandma and the rest of the family! Here is a recap of some of the weeks events...
* Having a German Christmas Eve!
* Spending lots of time with Uncle Eric and Aunt Krystal
* Christmas morning with Pop, Grandma, Uncle Eric, Aunt Krystal, Grammy Ruth, Grandaddy Jack, Aunt Ruby and Great Great Grammy Bowers! Lots of yummy food, and lot and lots of presents!
* Cheering on Pop and the Wildcats!
* Christmas with the Smiths! What a fun day!
* Finally meeting cousin Cooper for the first time!
* Two trips to Bridgeport, once to visit Jana and Ryan, and one to meet Rob, Liisa and Maddie! (Thanks for driving so far to meet us!)
* Playing in the snow for the first time! YEAH
* Oh and don't forget.....keeping mama and papa up all night, since Izzy decided to stop sleeping at all! :)


Here are some pics of the highlights of the past two weeks!










It's a German Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was spent in German style! After Isabella got to open her Christmas presents from Oma, she got to talk to her on the webcam and watch everyone in Germany open their presents. She got to see and talk to the whole family! Even though we couldn't be there for real, we were there in spirit! Papa even made us a special dinner...lamb, potatoes and red cabbage...a German treat! :) And the best thing about a German Christmas...Santa comes a day early! :) Izzy all dressed up in her dress from Oma!



Opening presents from Oma!


I love my new toys!



So much fun!
