Everett's 1st Christmas!

Well we survived our first holiday season with Everett! We spent five days in Olegbay in Wheeling, WV in a cabin with Grammy and Pap Pap, Aunt Emily, Uncle Matt, Aunt Jenni, Uncle Will and cousins Lucette and Violet- it was full cabin :) Everett did such an amazing job on the ride to and from WV- he did not fuss once in the five hour drive. He just slept and looked out the window and got excited when we stopped to stretch our legs. We started off the week with a birthday celebration for my dad and grandma. It was such fun to have a big party at the cabin and all our local extended family from both sides were able to attend- it was quite a gathering. On Christmas Eve we took Everett to the Toy and Train museum and to swim in the indoor pool, he loved it! He awoke on Christmas morning to find that Santa had brought him many, actually too many, gifts. He was such a good boy this year, each one was well-deserved! We capped off the week with a 1st birthday celebration for Miss Lucette at the Good Zoo. We got to pet lots of animals and see a holiday laser light show. Good times were had by all. By the end of the trip, mommy and daddy needed a vacation and we spent the next week recovering. I think I was asleep by 9 p.m. on NYE, which was fine by me. Well now January has arrived and the cold weather too.... counting the days until Spring! Hope everyone had a great Christmas and all our best in 2009!
