Holiday Photo Shoot

Once again, our dear friend Karen worked her magic for our annual holiday shoot http://www.karenannphotos.com/. I was expecting it to be stressful and last much longer, but Karen is a total pro. She captured so many great shots in just about an hour.

Part 3 of 3 - Merry Chicago Christmas!

Santa came to our house when we were away!!! Brex and Radley must have been very good boys this year, because Santa brought tons of gifts and everything the boys wished for. Highlights this year were "sally" the cat and a real Steelers helmet!

Part 2 of 3 - Merry Pittsburgh Christmas

The drive from Cleveland to Pittsburgh was a breeze during nap time and we arrived to Grammy and Pop's house refreshed and ready to open more presents!!! We started a new tradition the next day at the ski slope. Brex took a lesson and zipped down the hill countless times with daddy, Grammy, mommy, Uncle Steve, Maeve and Gwen. Pop's climbed all the way up the hill to get some photos and Radley took turns smiling at Aunt Teri, Uncle John, Aunt Maura and Roan at Boyce Park. 

 

Part 1 of 3 - Merry Christmas in Cleveland

We decided to drive instead of fly for Christmas this year and thankfully, both boys were angels in the car. We were away from home for a full week and spoiled with food, drinks, gifts and a few sleep-ins! Brex raked in a load of Spider Man stuff and Radley got a toy that actually keeps his attention for more than 30 seconds.

Santa was coming to Chicago while we were away, so Brex got in some last minute good behavior by mopping the floor. He even helped 'water' a poor little tree on the side of the road that was looking very thirsty! 

Fun Christmas Eve at Grammy and Pa's house and a successful 1st Christmas Day at Karen and Jim's house.
