The 2009 Christmas festivities have come to an end. We again had a great holiday and had a chance to visit with all of our family. We can see that each year will only get better as we see the joy of Christmas through our kids eyes.
This year our events were spread out over 2 weeks, so Tessa just thought you get up, drive somewhere, and you tear open paper and surprise...toys!! She was quite the professional at opening gifts; tearing little pieces and even puting them in the trash bag. She was of course completely spoiled by everyone; and we were all so thankful for everyone's generosity! We tried to mostly take videos of her opening gifts this year, but I do have a sprinkling of pictures from the events...enjoy!
We thought she looked so grown up here!
Daddy's Girl
Mommy's baby
Her first experience "out" in the snow!
Merry Christmas!
We turned her carseat to face forward this month. Even though she looks all but thrilled in this picture she really does seem to enjoy the car rides a bit more.

Tessa is really into "dipping" so appetizers were her fave. Behind her is her new playset from Grandma and Grandad
We hosted brunch at our house for Dan's family. Tessa had a blast with all her new toys.
Our nephew David is getting so big and growing up fast. We got him a digital camera and he was taking pictures of EVERYTHING. Tessa loves him so much!!!
Christmas is not complete without writing your thank you cards!!!
We begin our next year of excitement, fun, and love. Happy New Year!!
