Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 2011

Our Christmas break started out a little rough - Zach got an ear infection Christmas Eve! Poor little guy!
But he still got in his Hokie gear to welcome Grandma & Poppops!
We were so excited to have them with us for the holidays!
Zach couldn't wait to show Poppops his mad soccer and Tball skills!
We took a drive out to Oneonta for some Christmas lights!
Makayla & Zach loved it! We drove through twice!
FIRST PRESENT - Zach's annual ornament from Grandma! :)
After hanging his new guitar and train on the tree, he decided to take a ride on the wild side!

Every time we go to the zoo we have to get a giraffe shot!
We had a great time
But then we got caught!
And Zach got to try roller wheels
Mom did quite a good job! ;)
Thanks Grandma & Grandpa!
And putting up Zach's new swingset!
This swing was supposed to be for Makayla but Zachy loves it
Makayla enjoyed just sitting on the swing in the grass
And what is more fun that a big cardboard box?!

Little Sis - Big Brother shirts!
And Zachy sure is a great big brother - always wanting to love on sister
Take down time!!!

The game didnt go so well but we still had a wonderful holiday!!!
