Life's a Beach: Holiday.... Celebrate....

The Christmas tree is finally down, our house has been reclaimed, yet is now storing a few more items that we acquired this holiday season. We had a great Christmas, but it started out a bit rough as Henry came down with a cold that turned into a double ear infection and RSV (nasty respiratory virus.) When Henry's fever was finally gone, and his runny nose was getting under control, we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Beach's house for Christmas Eve and enjoyed the entire day there. Henry arrived in his pjs, enjoyed blueberry waffles and then opened gifts. We had a great day with Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Lindsey. We loaded our sleigh and went home, put Henry to bed on Christmas eve, set the scene for Christmas morning and went to bed with smiles on our face, ready to enjoy Christmas morning at our house! Henry's face was pure joy when he walked into the living room and saw the tower of blocks Daddy had built, his new dump truck, new puzzles and his Christmas tree all lit up. After a yummy breakfast, we packed up and headed to the west side of the mitten for Christmas #3 with the Sobczak family. More gifts, more hugs, more celebration, and lots of fun. The Christmas tree may be down, but we are still enjoying the spirit of Christmas at our house. We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday filled with love and light!
