A December to Remember

January 3rd already. Wow! I didn't have any time to update my blog during the month of December - too many great things going on! Here's a list of some of the highlights - Check out the photo slide for some pictures of our highlights too.

1. Gramma and Granddad's week long visit - early Christmas dinner and Christmas presents - as Drake would say - "Christmas #2".
   
2. Celebrating Tanner's 2nd birthday with a trip to Zoo Lights and cake and presents after the festivities.
   
3. Breakfast with Santa. Tanner was not too excited about sitting on Santa's lap and Drake was a bit apprehensive at first, but warmed up to him enough to ask for the Polar Express book.
4. Time with friends - Christmas celebration at the Snow's house, our "stay-cation" downtown and drinks and dinner with Nadja and Ryan, the party we forgot with friends - but still made, New Year's Eve with NWU pals.
   
5. Starting our own Christmas traditions - fish chowder in bread bowls and sugar cookies with Grasshoppers on Christmas Eve, wrapping Christmas presents on Christmas Eve drinking Prosecco.
6. Singing Christmas carols with Drake - we've almost got the 12 days of Christmas down!
   
7. The magic in Drake's eyes when he realized that Santa did come.
   
8. Spending Christmas day in our pj's playing with our new toys.
   
9. Nana and Pop's visit - happy hour with the view of downtown, shopping with mom, seeing my dad sitting in the rocking chair (with Tanner on his lap) that his Pop sat in on the farm.
   
10. 7 days off from work and precious time with the boys.
    

Wishing everyone a happy new year and a wonderful 2009!
