Christmas in NH - Snow Day! Part 6 Dec. 2010

 The Narlee abode

 I took this from inside the house, it's Matilda sticking to Kaleb's side in the snowy woods, Good Girl!

 Snow drifts

 Apples hanging on for dear life in the snow in Derry, NH

 Kaleb playing by the brook next to Gramma and Grampa's house.

Look at those rosey cheeks!

Christmas in New Hampshire Part 5 (I think...) Dec. 2010

 Cousins

 Luke, trying to earn Q's affection...

 Who's up for a game of Cream Kaleb???

 Only Gramma has the patience for a real live game of Monopoly! She must love this boy!

Love.

Christmas in NH - Post X-mas brunch @ the DePalmas Dec. 2010

 We were happy to be able to attend the annual post Christmas brunch at the DePalma house this year!

Here are a few of the guys - Steve, Luke, Tony and Ryan...Luke's oldest and best friends. It's always such a great time when they are together!

 We took advantage of the snow and got the kids out sledding down the hill behind the house.

 This is our new friend, Landon! He's an absolute doll!

Aliza and me keeping warm!

Chrsitmas in New Hampshire- Christmas morning! Dec. 2010

 The big guy had just a taste!

 For some strange reason, my children love to switch pj's on Christmas eve! So funny! On Kaleb's Christmas list was a request for "fresh cucumbers"...which Santa happily accomodated!

 Gramma and Gramp got Aliza Jane the most realistic, amazing baby doll she's ever encountered. She's baby Grace, and quite possibly the love of Aliza's life!

 Gramma and Ali getting to know the new addition!

 It was a New England Christmas, after all! Aliza got a Red Sox jersey.

 It was a magical morning with all the Narlee clan together! The kids had plenty to open and a blast playing with their new toys and each other.

Even Matilda loves the new baby!

Christmas in New Hampshire Part 4 The Eve...Dec. 2010

 Christmas eve night and all was well with the world! Gramma had special ornaments for the four kids to put on the tree...

 Jack was very careful!

 Cheese!

 The Clan!

 While we were putting out carrots for the reindeer, we heard Santa's sleigh bells! That got the kids motivated for some much needed rest!

Aliza wrote Santa a final note, and left him some cookies and milk in case he was hungry!

Christmas in New Hampshire Part 3 a litte RPK Dec. 2010

 Ryan was home in NH for Christmas too, and spoiled our kids rotten!

 He got Kaleb an airsoft gun that was beyond his wildest dreams! The boy was actually speachless!

Leggos and babies were at the top of Aliza's wish list and Ryan hit the nail right on the head!

We had a fantastic visit with the Kelly family and always love time spent with them - hope to see you all soon!

Christmas in New Hampshire Part 2 - Dec. 2010

 Q & A...as in Quinton and Aliza

 Smitten with each other!

 Aaawwwwwe!

What a pair!

Christmas in New Hampshire - Part 1 Dec. 2010

 This year we were lucky enough to have Christmas, not only in New Hampshire with Gramma and Grampa, but with Aunt Kira, Uncle Chris, Jackson and Quinton too!

 The kids were so excited to see each other! It was totally sweet to see them all together!

 Aliza, although dissappointed Quin isn't in diapers any more, was thrilled to hang out with ehr "baby" cousin. He wanted to hold her hand everywhere they went, and even had a yellow (her current favorite color) sippy cup!

Jack and Kaleb have a special bond, and Kaleb cherishes being the "big guy" in Jackson's life!
