Christmas

We had a great Christmas.  Saylor loved spending so much time with her cousins on both sides of the family and of course she loved opening her presents.  She did understand that it was Jesus' birthday and often sang Happy Birthday Jesus.  We had six parties and a fun weekend trip with the Boote's to Minneapolis.  Daddy got to go to the last Vikings game in the metrodome, Saylor swam and went on rides at the Mall of America, and mom got to do a little baby shopping.  Saylor also loved going sledding behind the Kabota with Papa and the four-wheeler with Daddy, Uncle Josh and Sage and to her first movie in the movie theater.  Here are just a few things captured by pictures.

Boote Family (plus two on the way!)
Someone was told she could look but not open.
Boote Grandkids 
Apparently this was the best way to open her present from Nana and Papa.

Loved riding the cat on the carousel at the MOA.  She yelled "MEOW, MEOW!"
