Christmas Season!

I can't believe all the holidays are over! Now it's time to start a new year and be excited for what's in store for 2012! Here are some pictures of Christmas, New Years, and everything in between!

Christmas Day at my parents
At our family Christmas we give white elephant gifts which never fails to give us all a good laugh! Aren't you jealous of these awesome gifts?? I mean who wouldn't be? There were many other super ugly ones, but these were the only ones I got pictures of.
Just to be clear this will not be hung anywhere in our house. Good one Mom!
Maddie ended up loving the ugly gift I received. She carried it around everywhere.
My grandpa was the lucky one to receive my flamingo.And to the family members who hid their gifts around the house and in the pine trees, you better watch out because you may be next to have these ugly gifts show up in your yard! Game on!

Enjoying the beautiful December weather at my parents Christmas day.
She loved her new kitchen set from pottery barn from Nana and Bumpa

We took Maddie skiing and she had such a blast. We stayed at the Grand Geneva for a night and thought it would be a perfect place to get Maddie on skis.




She did so well!


For NYE we went to the Brookfield Zoo lights with some friends. It was so beautiful with all the lights and we even got to see a lot of animals. Such a fun way to ring in the NEW YEAR!

  1. Oh hello, there you are! Loved seeing the holiday pictures. And I'm SO jealous you got Maddie up on skis, I have been wanting Georgia to do that. We are going skiing in Feb. but decided it should be just adults with Grant still being so young. Maybe next year with the kiddos, can't wait to hear more details about it. Love to all of you!
