Favorite time of evening

Recently our family's favorite time of the evening is just before Reed takes his bath when he dances around the house naked (or in some cases with socks on). He loves being naked and his little rolly naked body is just about the cutest thing ever. It is quite possible I will live to regret posting these but I just can't help myself...

A Very White Christmas

We are back from our trip to Minnesota for Christmas and settling back into our home routine after a really nice week and a half in the winter wonderland. The holiday trip was full of fun visits with family and friends, watching Reed with his sweet older cousins, eating and drinking way too much, enjoying some (brief and chilly) outdoor adventures, and nursing our respective colds. Billy made it at the last minute on Christmas Eve after spending the night in the Denver airport because of a snow storm that blew into MN on the 23rd and covered everything with white powder. This was the first Christmas with all the cousins together and needless to say there was a lot of laughing, games and playing to be had by all - including the parents!
