christmas 2013

We spent Christmas this year with the Sharps in New Jersey. It was a relaxing few days, with a lot of family on Christmas afternoon. Christmas morning was quiet with just Mom Mom, Pop Pop, me, Dave and the girls (and the dogs too of course). Sophie is very into Hello Kitty right now and got a matching pair of gloves and a hat from Lauren (what good taste at such an early age…)

Sophie’s big present was a bike (without pedals, the “new” training wheels). She struggled with it a bit, so we’ll need to keep practicing.

Sophie’s favorite present was a box of dress-up clothes from the Boyles. She’s a girl through and through. Here she is sporting one of the dresses, complete with gloves and clip-on earrings.
