A Few Christmas Photos

Wow--Christmas came and went pretty fast this year! I feel like I just put up the tree and decorations and now I have to take them down again....We had a very nice Christmas with more to come! I had to work this past weekend so it was a quick Christmas but it was nice to spend it with the family. We will go to Tom's parent's house after the new year. We had our little mini Christmas this past week where Owen opened presents from mommy and daddy and then headed to La Crosse for a few days to spend it with my fam. Owen had lots of fun saying their names. Here is his interpretation:

Ga-ma = Grandma
Pa-pa = Grandpa
Katie = K-t (pretty good huh?)
Hanni = Awn-ee
Molly = Mow-ee

He still likes to talk about going to see ga-ma, pa-pa, kt, & awn-ee and all the toys he got to play with. Overall, It was a very nice Christmas, short but sweet. Owen definitely had more fun unwrapping anyone and everyone's presents he could get a hold of. He likes all of his new toys and books but just didn't quite get it this year. It will be exciting to see what next year brings! I can still remember the excitement and anticipation of Christmas when I was a child. I can't wait for Owen to experience it! Anyways...here are a few photos of Christmas and some other random ones as well. I should have taken more.. (didn't think I would ever say that!) Hope everyone had a wonderful & blessed Christmas filled with lots of joy, family, & food! Thank you again to Mom, Dad, Katie, and Hanni! It was good to see you, as always, and thank you for the thoughtful gifts! You are always too kind ;) We will see you soon Liester family!
