December 2011

December, as usual, was a very busy time in our house.  Here are a few of the adventures that we had during this fun month.

Random December Adventures

(that we remembered to bring the camera on ;) )

Christmas Tree Hunting @ Bagley Nature Center

Searching for the perfect tree with the whole family

Stringing/Eating Popcorn to decorate our tree

Baking cookies for the "1st annual Hadiari Cookie Bake"

Building a snowman in the snow during the first snowfall.

(Mia mainly played a supervisory role)

 Mia decided that Tahoe should join in on the fun... but Tahoe was busy trying to eat the snow.

Mia's School Christmas Concert

 Christmas with the Lindes

What fun to get to spend time with so many members of the Linde/Nygard Clan!

 Mia even got to spend some quality time in the morning making biscuits with Grandma Carolyn.

 Playing with the McClearys

 What a fun time with all the Linde family.  It was a wonderful weekend in Madison!

 Christmas with the Streys

Playing the piano with Grandma Janet & Cousin Hannah

Jessi, Hannah, and Mia all enjoy a good book 

 Getting all cleaned up and ready for Santa

 "What are you doing over there... is that what I think it is..."

SANTA CAME!!

and he brought everyone a stocking!

Off to the Cities for Christmas with the Marxen side..

Then down to Austin for Christmas with even more Streys

I see you!

Nothing says "Tim's Birthday" like funfetti cake with pink frosting
