Christmas Whirlwind


We had a great and action packed trip to Colorado for the holidays. The boys and I were there for 2 1/2 weeks and Matt for 10 days. We were super busy, saw a bunch of people, and did a ton stuff. It wasn't the most relaxing vacation, with all of the running around we did, but it was still a great time and we loved catching up with all our friends and family. Alec definitely was much more into Santa and all of the fun of Christmas this year and we loved getting to experience everything with him. We certainly feel like we had a wonderful 2011 and have so much to be thankful for. Thanks everyone for a great trip. Here's a photo tour of our trip.

At the Nelson's annual Santa party! Both boys were happy to visit with Santa


The Nichols and Sungy boys. Alec was thrilled to get to catch up with his CO BFF James while we were back,.

Another annual event - cookie baking

We took Alec ice skating for the first time with Abby in Belmar. It was really cold, and balancing on skates was a little tricky for Alec, but he loved it nonetheless

So fun to see all the pictures. We loved seeing all of you and squeezing on our perfect "10" baby and preparing for Santa with Alec. Thx Mom for the great blog.

When I look at these pictures I just want to say, "Uh oh! You are going to be in so much trouble."
Those guys are adorable and full of it and I love them to pieces.
Think my favorite (if I actually could pick) is the bathtub shot. How funny that Alec looked like Charlie from behind such a short time ago and now he's just long legged and skinny. So cute.
