our year, in photos

CHRISTMAS MORNING

There were presents


Aunt Katie got Nova a shopping cart. She waited patiently while Poppa assembled it.


Every photo of her with it is blurry:




She seriously has not stopped pushing it around yet.



George books!




It was a very, very Merry Christmas!

CHRISTMAS EVE

We ate popcorn & watched movies.



Nova got all cozy.


There was some chaos.


And we had to keep checking for Santa...

CHRISTMAS COOKIES!

MORE CONCENTRATION THAN YOU COULD POSSIBLY IMAGINE

Especially with all of my little helpers!

FARGO WEEKEND

We just returned from a Fargo visit with our cousins. We managed to leave the camera at home, but Grandma Mary took this one of Nova while we were building gingerbread houses!

CHRISTMAS CARD OUTTAKES

ALL SNUGGLED IN

COUNTING DOWN

Nana sent us some calendars we can us to count down to Christmas!


It took us awhile to find the 1st day....



Got it!



Nova's face here is priceless:
