Christmas Celebrations!
We had a wonderful Christmas with our families. It was so great to see everyone. The weekend before Christmas we made the trek to Green Bay to spend time with Jerrod's family. We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas dinner prepared by Joe and Janel and enjoyed some family time. On Christmas eve,we celebrated at my mom and dad's house with Kim's family, Keith's family, and Uncle Les. My mom served her famous 'Christmas Eve' dinner of French onion soup, sandwiches, and all the fixings. I don't know how she does it, but her soup gets better every year. We woke up before Aria on Christmas and patiently waited for her to open her Santa presents. She must have been a very good girl! She was surprised that Santa even left presents for Mom and Dad. I guess we we good this year too! My mom and dad came by us on Christmas day to go to church and they also joined us for brunch at our home. It was a Christmas Miracle and Aria was surprisingly well behaved in Church! After nap time, we traveled to my mom and dad's house a 'traditional' Christmas dinner. Aria had a blast playing with Papa, dancing with her momma, and opening presents. Our holiday season was very blessed with family time, laughter, and just being together. I am so luckily to have my wonderful family and I thank god for them every day. Love you guys!!!!

Getting in the mood...
Christmas is definitely in the air at our home. Aside from the 6 inches of snow we received today, we also went to Hilliker Tree Farm to pick out our Christmas Tree. Aria was quite the little trooper as we rode the wagon through farm to find the perfect tree. She wanted to hold the saw, of course, but she settled for holding the stick that holds the branches out of the way. Once Daddy cut the tree down, we headed back to warm up by the fire and watch them bundle up the tree. Aria LOVES the snow! She helped daddy shovel and didn't want to come in the house. We had to bribe her in with the promise of a bath!

Pumpkin carving!
Ahhhhh, fall has arrived! We spent the weekend in Necedah enjoying some much needed family time. Aria had a blast, as usual, playing with her cousins, running around outside, and carving pumpkins.

Florida Trip
We had fun on our family vacation to Florida. Aria was quite the trooper in the hot Florida sun. She had a blast at the Magic kingdom riding on The Carousel, It's A Small World, The Magic Carpet, Peter Pan, Pirates of the Caribbean, and watching the famous Celebration Parade. At Sea World, she enjoyed Shamu's show, the Sea creature Carousel, the Swishy fishies ride, the outdoor splash pool, feeding the seals, and the underground aquarium. We also had some down time at our resort for grilling, swimming, and playing around. Aria was an angel on both plane rides! We couldn't have asked for a better time! We were also so blessed that Grandma and Grandpa met us in Florida and got to watch as Aria experienced all of the Magic of Disney for the very first time!!!!
