Holidays 2007

Christmas was a good one this year. Bess was finally old enough to really enjoy all the festivities and of course presents. Since there is lots of family in town, the gift giving was spread out over several days and come December 26th Bess couldn't quite figure out why there were no more presents to open.
We spent Christmas Eve at Nanny and Gramps Purkeys house for fondue (yum). Bess got a new dolly (quickly named "baby Emma") from Nanny and Gramps which she absolutely loves. Bess and Cousin Eli also got a great wooden train table for the play room at Nanny and Gramps.
Christmas morning was at home and was nice and mellow. Grandma Ella came over for brunch and then we went to cousin John and Jennas house for dinner. Bess had LOTS of fun playing with her cousin Jayden (John and Jennas daughter) and tells us we must get together with them soon again.
New Years Eve was spent at cousin Elis house. Uncle Kevin and Auntie Laura were there too as well and we all went out for a big dinner of chinese food and a slumber party. Happy New Year everyone!
