Christmas 2011

We spent Christmas in Victoria this year. Not only did we spend six days with John's family, but my parents and sister joined us for the holiday as well. It was Michelle's first Christmas on the island (my parents joined us at the Miller's in 2009) and everyone had a wonderful and busy time. The weather was rainy and cold but we went for daily walks and took the girls swimming, looking at gingerbread houses and visiting with friends. There were some long days due to Charlotte deciding that 4:30 AM was an appropriate time to wake up each morning, but Christmas went very well and the girls had lots of fun visiting with their grandparents, aunts and uncle. Thanks for having all of us!
