An early visit from Santa!

Santa came to visit while we were at Grandma's house last weekend!

Bobby told Santa about the Legos and "treats" he is hoping to receive.

"You better be good...." Santa talked with Bobby about how important it is to be a good boy, brush teeth, cooperate during diaper changings, etc.

Will is pretty easy to please and didn't have any specific requests this year, though I know he's secretly hoping for something to chew on.

Beautiful Christmas tree! How Grandma managed to have all her presents wrapped already is beyond me....

Jim read Bobby a story after he returned from taking care of Santa's reindeer on the roof during Santa's visit.

Thanksgiving 2009

We had a wonderful family vacation in Idaho for Thanksgiving!

Two happy grandmas, and two happy boys!

The beautiful log home Court and Kelly arranged for us all to stay in.... Incredible views of the Tetons.

Gma, Will, and Bobby had a great time! Wish I had a picture of the snowman, "Frospy," that Gma and Bobby created.

Sledding with Court, Jacob, and Ang (whom Courtney is wearing in a sling in this scene!).

Boppa and baby Ang.

Ang (4 weeks) and Will (3.5 months).

Jim is quite an adept skier and carried Bobby down the bunny slope, much to Bobby's great delight! We'll try Bobby in skis next time....

Kendra won the majority of the card games. Eric did have some liabilities.

The Idaho equivalent of a time-out? Naw! But Bobby did learn that there are certain places you don't want to stand when snowballs are flying....







No shortage of story-tellers on this trip! Uncle Keef was Bobby's favorite.
