A Full Day!!

Oma and Papa came to visit this weekend to spend an early Christmas with us. Here were are enjoying the after effects of the snowstorm that occurred the day before.

Our backyard

Oma and Mama thought they could shovel the driveway themselves. This was about a foot of snow. It didn't happen. We ended up calling someone to come plow out our driveway. There was so much snow, that the snow plow guy got stuck!

Papa and Maya stayed nice and warm inside.

Daddy, Papa, and Leo made pancakes.

Decorating the gingerbread house.

Leo ended the day with a big fat chocolate doughnut. Though, he only eats the chocolate part and throws away the rest.

Christmas Party

Today, Leo, Daddy, and Mommy went to a Christmas party at Daddy's office. Maya stayed at home with Ammachi and napped.

Leo won this teddy bear for guessing the closest number of kisses in the jar (he had a little help on that from Daddy). He seemed more happy about the mini M&Ms though.
