Finally- The big day! Christmas 2011!

 Yummy lobsters from the east coast (gotta keep traditions alive) for Christmas Eve
 And the great lobster race....


 Christmas Eve dinner, lobster, yummy broccoli & Grammy's awesome indian pudding
 Lily requested her own lobster- she ate some of it..... We also took some time to write a note to uncle baird, which we then burned & sent up to the sky for him to read. Lily's note was really cute (I only know b/c she dictated it to me).
 Santa came!!!!!!!!!
 My 1st attempt at yummy homemade sticky buns. They were good! But then again, they were a Paula Deen recipe, so they couldn't really be bad.

 After a slow start- Amelia got REALLY into opening presents- she tried to open pretty much everyone's and was MAD when they were all gone. In fact, she still says "wooooow" whenever I open anything. Even the butcher wrap on ground turkey.
 We had a few dog friends over for vacation- a hazard of staying in town. But we loved 'em.
 Santa knew Daddy just HAD to have a train going around the tree.

 After presents & relaxing, we headed up to Snowbowl for some Christmas Day skiing, before dinner with friends. It was Amelia's 1st day & she did awesome!
 Her 1st chair ride with daddy!
Lily & mommy enjoying the warm day on the slopes.
