Weird Christmas

It was a weird Christmas this year.  The actual day of was grey and gloomy like the 2 weeks prior.  We had no snow, it was gross brown outside.  In fact I kept looking at our neighbor's moldy pumpkins across the street.

We were all still getting out of the funk of being since for a full week and Emma had her worst night to date.  Put it all together and you end up with a weird Christmas...

aaaaand, I didn't even get one family picture or one of all 3 girls together...oof, it's tough having a newborn around the holidays, at least one that decides to switch her temperament the day before!

With this crazy flu epidemic, as soon as we got home from Mass we striped down and showered to keep any and all germs away.

Setting out the reindeer food

 Then we got ready for church, flew out the door and came home without any pictures...

Christmas morning, she got her bow and arrow!

 Her Elsa doll!

 Rockin' out on her guitar

 The plus side of no snow was Sally got to go out 5 times to shoot her bow and arrow

 Sally drew a family portrait, she said she made Emma older so she could look like us

 But drew her in a different picture swaddled up :)

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night...unless you have a newborn then it will be a sleepless night ;)

More pics to come from our fun weekend at Nana and Grandpa's to celebrate Christmas, where Emma was a little better, but not really...
