Christmas X 3

We were able to celebrate Christmas a few times this year.  2011 was exciting because this is the first year Shay was able to start to understand what Christmas was all about.  She was so excited to see everyone and of course, open presents.  Christmas Eve we headed over to Amma's after going to church.  Everyone was there, and the girls had a great time playing with their cousins.  Alyssa had special interest in Baby Gus.  Christmas Day we headed to my aunt Marylou's where the whole Sturm family got together for great conversation and delicious food.  The day after Christmas we headed to Papa Bill's and Grandma Ginger's house to have fun with the Carroll family. Whew!  We got a lot of celebrating done in just a few days!

Alyssa spent as much time as possible around Gus

What a good looking crew!






Alyssa figured practicing her bridge was a great thing to do anywhere
