Christmas 2010

Last week we were in California for Christmas. We had a great time visiting family and Emily enjoyed having lots of people around to play with. The first video below has nothing to do with Christmas but I think you'll see why I've included it. Catching Emily on video singing is not too easy so I was excited to catch this. To be honest, I am very impressed. She is starting to pick up more and more every day.



Since we were traveling we decided to open gifts sent in the mail or gifts from from ourselves for ourselves so we didn't have to haul them around. Thus Emily had two days to open Christmas gifts this year. Here are a few pictures from our house.


On Friday we (Emily and Ryan) went to Disneyland with Evy, Erick, "little" Erick and Evrick. No the "v" is not a typo for those unfamiliar. Evy gets a few free tickets every year so we were able to go with them. We had a good time even though there were lots of people there. Emily got to see her favorite princess Snow White and rode on several rides.




We left Disneyland around six and spent Christmas Eve eating tamales and having a short program at Anne's parents with all her family except Michael. Gaetano's (Marisa fiance) mom and a few other family members of his were there as well along with aunt Tina. Christmas morning was spent with just immediate family opening gifts. Thanks to all those that gave Emily and Audrey gifts along with ourselves of course. Here are a few more videos. One of Anne's gifts was a Vado HD so hopefully our videos are clearer on the blog.





As this blog seems to be all about Emily, here is a video of Audrey. She's not moving around real fast these days but is continuing to grow. She wasn't feeling to well over the break but managed to pull through ok.

Looks like you guys had a great time! How fun. Glad to be back? We were supposed to fly back today, but we had a snow storm last night and all the flights today were canceled. In fact, we can't get on another flight until Thursday! And we have to drive to Philly instead of flying out of Newark. Its been crazy. We enjoyed a great day sledding today, however, (landon's first time ever)... and it was fun. We will have to catch up when we get back. Hope you had a great holiday!
