Thank you Nana, Bapa, Uncle Gregg and Aunt Lisa for a wonderful Christmas Day and all the gifts. We love you all.

Christmas Eve at Elver Park

Elmo's World

Have I mentioned how our lives have changed? Today Sarah got gifts in the mail from her Uncle and Aunt in Seattle. Elmo's World - the complete DVD collection. Yup, that is what our Christmas Eve will entail -- lots and lots of Elmo.

Thanks guys.

Christmas at the Van Grolls

This weekend we had Christmas at Grandpa Pete and Grandma Joyce's house. Sarah got to play with her cousin Owen, eat cookies baked specially for her by Grandpa and Uncle Larry and got to open presents from Grandma and Grandpa, Aunt Lori, Uncle Larry, Uncle Mike and Aunt Jenny. She made out HUGE. Uncle Mark and Aunt Angela couldn't make Christmas - they are in 85 degree weather in Hawaii - poor them.

Sarah wanted to say thank you so much for being so wonderful and generous. She loves you all. We can't say it enough how lucky our little girl is.

A Conversation With My Daughter

At lunch today, Sarah and I had a good talk. Well, sort of.

We love Saturdays

NO WORK, NO SCHOOL and a chance to play in the snow and buy our Christmas tree.
