It wasn't our year to have the kids for Christmas, so Mark and I took a quick trip to Boise the weekend before Christmas so we could celebrate with Nora. She makes Christmas so magical! We just adore her!
We got there on Friday afternoon just as Bailey was getting off work. We had dinner and then headed to see the lights at the 'Caldwell Winter Wonderland.' It was the coolest light display!
|
Everything is more fun with Nora around! |
|
Nora got a high five from Santa while she was walking through a light tunnel. |
|
I freaking love her so much! It's impossible not to be happy around her. |
|
We found Santa again! |
We woke up Saturday morning and had an early Christmas. Watching her open presents was the cutest thing ever!
|
Christmas with Grams and Pops was good practice for the real Christmas! |
|
😊😊😊 |
|
Mark and I got a Cold Case to solve from Bailey, Mason, and Nora! We're excited to give it a try! |
|
Yay for Bluey! |
|
Bailey and Mason got a Skylight calendar from us. I didn't know these were a thing until Bailey said she wanted one. They are super cool! |
We got Nora the cutest record player. It was a huge hit! She learned how to change the records, flip them over, and pick what song she wanted before the day was even over. My knee was super sore when we got back home from all the dancing I did with her. 😆

Bailey was terribly sick during Thanksgiving when they were at the farm. She seemed a lot better while we were there, but definitely still had hard moments. This was one of them. I stood over her, told her to say cheese, took her picture, and she promptly flipped me off. 😂 Oh the joys of the first trimester! |
Bailey wanted to do a 'Christmas dinner' while we were there, but she can hardly walk through the kitchen without wanting to throw up, so I quickly said no to that. We ended up having a nice dinner at the Cheesecake Factory instead. You can never go wrong there.

Waiting for a table at the Cheesecake Factory. This picture melts my heart! 😊 |
It was a quick trip, but so worth the drive to experience a little Christmas magic with Nora.
