Santa Came to Washington!

As usual we went home to Washington for the holidays. We had tons of fun, and are exhausted! The first day there I ran my fourth half marathon. It was a great race, and I ran it in my fastest time ever! Actually, I was running next to this guy for a while who was in his seventies and said that he was running his 300th full marathon (there was a full marathon too)!

Coming in to the finish line

This is when I realize exactly how exhausted I really am!

Nate, the boys and both my parents came out to cheer me on!

Later that night my mom took Reid and I to see the princess and the Frog. Reid LOVED it!

Sleep in heavenly peace




We went to the mall to see Santa, and this guy was the best ever. He actually took the time to talk to Reid for a few minutes so he could get to know him before I abandoned him on his lap. Both kids thought it was great.




On Christmas eve this year I had the boys open matching pajamas to wear that night. I was so excited that I found something that matches in both of their sizes.


We also went to see a fun light show with Papa.







Christmas day we went over to my brother's and spent Christmas with his family and my mom.


What did Reid spill on his shirt you may ask? Nothing. He CHEWED on it the whole night! What a weirdo.
My brother and my cute new niece, Isabella.

We did spend some time in Bellingham with Nate's family, and had so much fun, but I was a slacker with my picture taking. I'm pretty sure I did the same thing last year. It's great to be home!

Happy New Year!
