Our Christmas

 

We had a nice Christmas here in Italy with Mark’s family.  Abbie made it fun because she’s now at an age where she’s an active participant.  It’s fun to see her reaction to things.  It made me miss my family though.  This isn’t my first Christmas away from them, but it doesn’t really get easier.  Hopefully next year we can do Christmas with them.

Here are a few pictures from the last couple of days.  Okay, maybe more than a few.

(Abbie finally likes to wear hats occasionally.  She’s always asking me to put this one on her.)

(Trying to get a decent picture in front of the tree, but she was throwing a fit about her boots.

(The new boots Mark’s mom got her.  She didn’t like them at all at first, but now she’s used to them.  They’re adorable.  And I think that dress is from my mom too.)

(Our 2010 Christmas photo.  Too bad it was dark out already or we would have taken it outside.  Oh, and it was raining, for the 3rd day…)

(Abbie dancing.  She LOVES to dance.  And she always needs a dance partner which is usually a bear or a doll.)
