Christmas '09

We can hardly believe Christmas is already over! It was a great holiday, and we were so glad to be able to spend it with at least part of our family. Aunt Susan, Lee and Grandma Paulina joined us on Christmas Eve for a yummy dinner.



Christmas morning started with a great breakfast and the opening of presents - way too many of them!

Uncle Mike, Aunt Cristina, Cousin Brandon and Cousin Mia joined us later on Christmas Day for another round of opening presents!

Maile had so many that we had to save some for the morning after Christmas. How does that happen??

We then went to OMSI with the Nguyen family. The girls enjoyed the sand pit, despite the crowds.

Then, Uncle Gabe (family friend since we were little) came to visit with his wife, Kristin, and their adorable 6-month-old daughter, Isabella. It was her turn to open gifts, and the big kids were more than willing to help.

The next day, Melissa and Grandma Paulina took the kids to Pump It Up to burn off some energy, while the rest of the parents did some shopping.

We're already missing everyone, and we can't wait until next year!
