furry christmas

Oh what an amazing and fun filled Christmas we just had. I feel like such a lucky girl! To have my family decide that of all the places they could be, they'd like to be here with us in Seattle - well that in itself was the greatest gift!

My brother showed up on Tuesday, then my Mom and Bill came on Wednesday and then Courtney on Thursday. It was like a 4 day long slumber party. We sat around and laughed in our pajamas, ate waaay too much good food and slept hard at the end of each night. Once we woke up, we'd do it all again, cramming as many good things into as many usable hours as possible.

Just one major thing was missing - well, more like three. Our precious little babies. Splitting these holidays between households can be so hard. But luckily, Josh did get to be home with us for half of Christmas and through to the next morning.

So thank you, Mama and Bill and Nick-o and Courtney, for coming to spend this holiday with us and all of the spoiling that ensued. And thank you, John and Eileen, for having our big old clan crash your party so we could spend some much needed time with you guys too!
And thank you to my ever patient husband, for giving me smooches all along the way.
