Christmas 2008
Our Christmas schedule was quite busy. Jon worked up until Christmas Eve making sure our air quality is well taken care of and Jolie spent some time baking treats for people to enjoy as well as making attempts at making Christmas gifts. We really enjoyed our first Christmas with Ethan. Although he would rather play with the paper (especially shiny, crinkley paper), he enjoyed (and still is enjoying) his many Christmas gifts.
Christmas with Jolie's family: We celebrated Christmas on Saturday since we are all so busy on Christmas and like to make our own traditions with our "little" families. We met for brunch and then opened presents. By 1, we were all ready for a nap. This picture is of Zoe opening up the Hungry Caterpillar Quilt Jolie's mom made. It was a hit!
Christmas Day with Jon's family: Thursday afternoon brought all of family on Jon's side together for a late lunch, presents, birthdays, Nertz, Blokus, and talking.
This is a picture of Ethan opening a present from Jon's parents. He will probably enjoy Christmas much more next year when he has a better understanding of what is happening. We had fun with him, though! He sure has been a great gift to Jon and I this past year.
