Christmas 2009 Highlights


Ava got 2nd prize for her Angel costume at her school Christmas party





Bid farewell to Marley (the Labradoodle) and Hailey (the Jack Russell Terrier).
They moved to Wisconsin, along with my sister and her family on the 20th. It was heartbreaking, but I look forward to going to visit them there, once the blizzard season is gone and the snow is melting.

Ava Christmas Eve in Tucson at her Great-Grandma's house.

Great-Grandma (who will be 93 this next July), looking gorgeous as usual!


Ava on Christmas morning excited to see all the wonderful things Santa left for her in her stocking.


Ava was spoiled by Santa, her grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, neighbors, and of course by her mommy and daddy. She was grateful, overwhelmed, excited, and then quite exhausted. And when she threw a major tantrum in the middle of our neighbors living room this afternoon,
we knew it was time for a long nap. =)

Another successful Christmas, and we're looking forward to 2010!

Your Christmas must have been so pleasurable. We missed being with you. Our sweetest times have always been those when we could look at the joy in our family's eyes. Loving you always, Mom and Dad (Grandma and Poppa).
