Well, this year's Christmas has come and gone and it was a big hit! My family came down on Saturday and much of the day was spent lazing around and relaxing. Saturday night, we were able to make it out to a Festival of Lights nearby, which was a lot of fun. On Sunday, we took a trip out to Mt. Vernon. Liam couldn't really handle the mansion tour, but loved running around on the grounds. His favorite parts were probably the "cool cars" (or wagons) and the sheep. Sunday night, we all went to church. Unfortunately, Liam and I had to spend most of the service in the car as he couldn't handle sitting still or semi-quiet at all. Afterwards, my dad made an excellent multi-course meal that included crab, sushi, shrimp, etc.
Christmas morning was full of lots of surprises and fun all around. Liam really enjoyed all of his gifts. He was still a bit young to understand everything, but had fun playing with all the new toys and visiting with everyone. Here are a few pictures from the day:
Taylor made us a great dinner while we lazed around, watched football, and decorated Christmas cookies. This morning, my parents left very early for work and then the rest of us went to Starbucks for a post-Christmas breakfast. After a fun time with Playdoh, it was time for Mike and Bryan to be on the road and for us to reast up for the next Christmas wave...Basye Christmas.
