Christmas Eve/Christmas Day...

Merry White Christmas...a VERY, VERY, VERY White Christmas! (Which BTW - one of my FAV X-mas movies...was on ALL day yesterday...watched a few 3-4 times.) :)

We have been in SL since Tuesday...it is Friday night...and I have not seen it stop snowing yet - for real! The end of my parents' driveway was drifted up to Josh's chest level this morning...I like snow...but not this much! It can stop anytime... :)

We have been blessed to have most of the family safely arrive in SL. Jen had to work Christmas Eve and Christmas...so not sure we will get to see them as the weather isn't really promoting much traveling tomorrow. So we are bummed about that...2 holidays in a row we don't connect. :( But...we would much rather have them be safe than traveling across the snowy tundra of Western and NW Iowa.

A few more pics to share...Grandpa Petersen has some good videos from opening presents this morning...will try to get those off his camera tomorrow. We have had 2 great days of spending time with family and doing all the usual "Christmas" things...which this year, has included LOTS and LOTS of shoveling/blowing snow for Josh. :) (Keatin has actually really enjoyed watching all the snow "activity" out the windows.) :)

After Christmas Eve church...Keatin's hair WAS up in a cute ponytail...then she pulled it out. :(


Christmas morning...Santa came and Keatin was ready!!! (Notice Santa's belt - must have gotten dressed in the dark as his belt was brown...and unfortunately, he left it behind!)


And opening presents began!



Santa ALSO left his black boot-cover-thing...of course, Keatin tried it on!



Keatin's new pretty purse...Daddy loves it already!


Christmas afternoon at the Barbers...


Oh Crimmy - I missed you!



Keatin's own recliner from G & G Barber...





Cozying up with Crimson...love that dog!


More of the snow report tomorrow... :) Merry Christmas 2009!
