CHRISTMAS EVE

What a wonderful Christmas season we had...it's fun to have Chad on the "school" schedule, because Dec 16  hit and we were on va-ca-tion! the kids didn't get the memo and decided to get a horrific stomach bug that started the week before, and travelled the whole house thru 1.5 times. Anyways, by about Dec 18 we were in the Christmas spirit and had the Lussier Christmas party and then the next day headed to the Grotto in portland. Splash in a couple work days and crazy shopping on friday, and then you make it to Christmas Eve. 
We started a tradition of breakfast with the Pemberton's. 1st annual this year. 



Baby Derek, born Nov 30. He is looking for some food too....


Then Isaac and I had Christmas cookie extravaganza!



















After running around crazy frosting and cooking cheese dip and getting ready, we headed over to Chad's family's Christmas eve get together....

Dear Santa

I really need a new camera... So i would appreciate if the washer/dryer/dishwasher/etc. does not break in the next month so we can make this happen.

Love,
Anne

O Christmas tree!

Progressive dinner

Had our first neighborhood progressive dinner with the coolest 6 couples (chad and I included:)) we are so blessed to live in this house and to have such wonderful families and couples to have fun and party with!
We had chandler who is going to school down south come watch the kids. And off we went!

I forgot thanksgiving!!!

Started by watching movie curious George, cooked all morning, took nap, aunt heather came over, ate dinner and went to work. That's all folks.

Sneak peek Christmas pics

Zoo lights

One of my favorite things to do at Christmas time.... Too bad I only have an iPhone camera to capture all the memories. It is 1000 times better than the pics:)
P.s temp was in high 30's.... Brrrrr!
