Merry Christmas 2011

In lieu of a Christmas letter this year, Kyle put together a montage of 2011. (mostly because he didn't have a lot to say about being a stay-at-home dad)  We hope you had a wonderful 2011 and we wish you a happy and healthy 2012.

Love,

Kyle, Courtney,
Aidan, and Aubrey

Santa Baby 2.0

Grandpa Finn saves the day.  (again) He was quick with his camera and snapped this picture  before the screaming ensued.  Just goes to show, kids will do almost anything for some candy.

Santa Baby

Santa made an appearance after church this morning.  Aidan was EXCITED, Aubrey wanted nothing.to.do.with.him.  Period.  So, we have a picture of Santa and Aidan, but Aubrey wouldn't even let me hold her near him.  Merry Christmas.

Back At It

It's taking me longer and longer to get blogs posted. You'd think we were busy or something. We enjoyed a bustling Thanksgiving split between our house and Mick's house. It was heaven to cook the food, but have the meal at someone else's house. Thanks for hosting, Mick!

After a few glasses of wine, my sister decided we should go Black Friday shopping at 10pm on Thanksgiving night. Since I'd also had a few glasses of wine, I was easily coerced into going along. Walmart and Target helped Santa's cause and I now only have a few presents left to purchase. I was so pumped on a shopping high that I couldn't go to sleep until after 2am. Thankfully, the Kyles got up with the kids and let Kali and I sleep in.

We capped off the Thanksgiving celebration with a trip to the Gophers vs. Illini football game on Saturday. Cold, but FUN! Kali and I had the most fun since we decided to leave at the beginning of the 3rd quarter and go sit in a warm bar. I wish Kyle M. hadn't been MIA when this picture was taken or it just might have made the Christmas card!

The family minus Kyle M.
