Willa at Play
Christmas Celebrations
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!
We had snow and freezing temps the week before and after Christmas. It was fun for about a day then it was just cold! It was kind of fun to have a white Christmas... kind of...
We had a pretty bad case of cabin fever so, we bundled up and headed out to Fairhaven for a bit of Christmas shopping and adventures in snow.
Santa Train
Every year our good friends the Hankeys take there kids on the Santa Train not far from our house and this year they invited us along! It is an old train that runs on the tracks that used to take timber from the woods and mountains to the bay. Santa comes to each seat on the train and sits and talks with each kid. It actually says on the ticket that the train ride is between and hour and a half to two hours depending on how detailed the kids are with their lists for Santa... hilarious!! Willa is a bit young to enjoy it but she had a great time playing with Eli and Rachael... as you can see in the pictures below.

Outings and Family Fun
We don't know if it's teething or just a strange fascination with cabinet pulls but Willa is always trying to open cabinets with her mouth!
Since Bret works four tens he has Fridays off. We always try to do something fun as a family... our Family Fun Friday! This was Willa's first visit to the pool. As you can see, she loves it!!

Here Willa is heading out to story time at the library. They have a special story time for babies and toddlers. We sing and dance and, of course, read stories. This is our Tuesday outing.

On Monday's we spend the morning at Willa's play group/ Leah's moms group. All of us have little ones within a few months of eachother. It so fun to see them grow and play together!

Vanity thy name is Willa! Willa loves to look at herself in the mirror. She really cracks herself up! Here she is taking one last peak before we head to church.

We have family time each night just before Willa goes to bed. It usually entails a little cuddling on the couch and a lot of watching Lyle and Willa play.
