Merry Christmas!!!

Okay so we've been back from our Christmas holiday for almost two weeks and I am finally getting around to posting these pictures from Christmas. Ugh! We had a wonderful trip down to Vancouver to see the Kitchin and Roselli families for the holidays. After a 6 1/2 hour drive to Vancouver in the blizzarding snow (not such a fun drive) we finally made it. Lexi was such a trooper in the car. We were so thankful to have made it down south. The glooming weather forecast encouraged us to leave Bellingham 2 days earlier than planned to head south. We are so glad that we did. The weather worsened after we got there and we ended up being snowed in at Chris' parents house for 2 days. We had lots of good family time with both sides of the family playing games, sledding and playing with Lexi. This was the first Christmas that Lexi really understood what was going on. She was VERY into opening presents and said thank you to Santa after each present...so cute!

Lexi opening presents at our house before we left to go to Vancouver. Santa brought her a new dolly that she named "Baby Kate". Not sure where that come from?

She also got a new "um-ba-lel-uh".

The snowy drive down south. This is when we could actually see the freeway. For the last 100+ miles, it was like blizzard conditions.

Playing with Baby Kate on our drive down. The snow can be soooo bright!

Thank you to both families for a wonderful Christmas. We feel so blessed to be able to spend time with all of you.
