Christmas and Snow!

We had such a nice little Christmas this year. Cole really loves his big dog. He walks and then falls on it. He also had a nice time playing in the snow. We are getting better at dressing him so that he will enjoy it more. My only real challenges are those darn mittens! He is walking all of the time now, too.

Here is a link to see the pictures that a photographer took of all of us at the Kathryn Albertson Park in October. All of the pictures are included so you will have to promise to only look at the good ones and not at the fuzzy or other unflattering pictures.

Botanical Gardens

We had a nice time with our neighbors going to the Botanical Gardens to see the Christmas lights. It was a little chilly!

Cole can Walk! Yippie

Cole can walk! He has been working up to this moment all week. He is so excited with his new ability. Cole was walking all the way down the hallway. We are so proud of our official toddler.

Florida

We had such a nice visit in Florida! Forgive us if we didn't take one stinking picture, though. It was so nice to see everyone. On Saturday, when we arrived, we stayed at Grandma Leigh's house and it was a lot of fun to see Leigh and John fall in love with a toddler that had a very long day of travel. Sunday, Dad and Kitty had fun showing Cole around the toy store at the Brandon Mall. I am still sorry about lunch! I had to take Cole to the car because he was so tired and needed a nap. Monday, we just hung around Grandma Paula's house while Cole (and the rest of us) caught up on some ZZZ's. We went to a playground that was fun, too. Tuesday and Wednesday were spent with the Dallas clan. We saw Great Grandma Doris, Great Grandpa, and Great Uncle Geese. It was a lot of fun watching Willy and Cole swim in the Rainbow river with Uncle John. That was one of my favorite days. It was funny to watch Jenna change a diaper in their new beautiful house. Staying at the beach was awesome, Cole is hardcore and loved the water and building sand castles. The Christmas party was very enjoyable; I got to see Willy in action with his work people. I think he is just great. Those are the bullet points anyways. We are getting ready to get on the plane now. Thank you everyone for our great Florida vacation. Time to play in snow!
