Here are some photos we took at home and in Michigan over Christmas. Later this week we'll post some photos from our past week in California. Eating blueberry pancakes for dinner the night before our trip to Michigan for Christmas. Lena is such a blueberry-ovore that she started shaking out the rolled pancakes to get at the berries directly.
We spent Christmas with Paul's family in Ann Arbor, MI. Here is Alan (Paul's dad) on Christmas morning.
Leon (our brother-in-law), Vanessa (Paul's sister), and Izze (our niece) opening up stockings on Christmas.
Paul's parents, Gillian and Alan.
Paul, Izze, and Lena playing "little red caboose".
Izze and Lena playing with fantastic scarves brought to them by ol' st. nick (with a bit of help from his elves on Power St. in Baltimore).
Alan (alias Baba Be), Izze, Lena, Gillian (alias MomG).
This year for Christmas we decided to involve everyone in a project. Vanessa, Leon, and Izze brought supplies from Baltimore and we brought supplies from Chicago to make beeswax candles in the backyard. Here we are, strings in hand, ready to start.
The fire we melted the wax on.
Paul with Izze and Lena.
Gillian and Vanessa wielding beeswax candles. They turned out well, though a bit odd because of the temperature extremes between the hot wax and cold air.
During our candle fest.
The cousins wearing beautiful matching dresses.
Our last morning in Michigan MomG led us in a cookie making extravaganza.
