What a wonderful Christmas we had this year with a great turn out of guests! Our pleasant surprise this year was Paul, Amy and Kelly who braved the drive all the way from Arizona. We had lots of help breaking in our new piano. Grammy played Christmas carols for us and here are Paul and Jen hamming it up.
Despite his west coast address, Paul showed up in his Patriots attire! Go Pats!

We had blizzard conditions on Christmas Eve. Paul and Amy even got stuck in the snow trying to get up our hill! The snow finally subsided enough for us to venture out to the Christmas Eve service. Then home for our traditional feast of appetizers! Rachel and Kelly managed to get in a game of War.

Rachel thought she heard Santa on Christmas Eve and she must have been right because he sure brought lots of toys to our house.
For New Year's Eve we had a visit from Lisa, Dave and Veronica who made the trek all the way from California. We put them to work shoveling snow for us in exchange for room and board :)

Dave and Veronica are avid skiers and finally gave us the impetus to get the kids on skis for the first time. Carson made it down the bunny hill once (holding onto Daddy's pole) and Rachel made it down twice. And they even want to go back again!
