Christmas

I am finally getting around to blogging about Christmas! It was a great Christmas - as most Christmases are. It was fun having a little kid around, although, I think for the most part Matea was pretty oblivious to what was going on. Next year I think she'll have a blast. Here are some pictures in no particular order - I am leaving them how they ended up uploading.

We had the Peterson Christmas in Duluth this year the weekend before Christmas...

Matea heard "The Night Before Christmas" from Grandpa Flavin for the first time - on the night before Christmas!

Jesse brought over his guitar hero and we played for a while during the Peterson Christmas - here is Aimee and Becky playing for the first time!
Our tree. This was my favorite tree so far! It had a great shape.

Aaron got a kite to go snow kiting for Christmas. Here he is trying it out for the first time.

and it is in the air!

I think Aaron will be spending a lot of time outside playing with the kite and figuring it out. He tried it with his snowboard strapped on the other day - I know he's looking forward to snowboarding with it on a lake or in a field soon!
