Luna's 1st Christmas

Despite the uncharacteristic Christmas snow, we were able to celebrate Luna's first Christmas with the Larson family. Unfortunately Grammy (Brian's mom) couldn't join us this year, but we hope she will be able to in the future . Christmas Eve we travelled down to Redmond for an early dinner with Uncle Ken, Auntie Steph and Grandma, then back up to Anacortes to spend the night. Patrick and Emily were able to join us on both days and Luna loved seeing them. Obviously Luna had little concept as to what was going on with gift giving, but she loved being around her family and getting LOTS of attention! Happy Holidays to all of our friends and family both near and far. We hope you have had as much to be thankful for this year as we have.

All this excitement makes a little girl tired

Grandpa helped Luna open her stocking
Luna was able to pull at some of the paper to help unwrap
