White Christmas

Christmas this year was a white one for us, much to Eli's delight.  Actually, a week before Christmas it snowed, and Eli was so excited.  He said, "I always dreamed of snow when I was in Houston, and now I guess today is my lucky day."  There was even enough snow for Eli to make his first snowman.



Eli made a graham cracker "gingerbread" house at a friend's house.

We were surprised to see snow again on Christmas morning.  We've been told it doesn't usually snow here, so I guess it was more than Eli's lucky day--more like his lucky week.  Here are some pictures of our Christmas:

Eli gets a Christmas story on Christmas Eve.  This was the book he got this year.

Santa brought Eli a Spiderman bike.

We spent Christmas afternoon and night with Josh's family in Gig Harbor.
