Christmas 2012
We weren't home this Christmas, but we didn't have to get on on plane to make it to our final destination....thank goodness for that! We met Mama & Papa Bejos and Sister & BIL Bejos down in Tucson for a warm, sunny and relaxing vacation.
As you can tell there was a whole lot of R&R, a whole lot of down time, and a good amount of sunshine.

off my needles
It has been a long while since I have completed a project but maybe this winter weather will help. This pattern, found here, is a quick easy knit.
I modified it just a bit for this recipient but love, love, love the results.
It can start as a sweet little tunic dress with a cozy pair of legging or tights and hopefully morph into a sweet little sweater vest as she grows.
It makes me yearn a little bit for a baby girl.

decking the halls
Things are shaping up around here in preparation for the holidays.
And out comes the book that bejos boy will read listen to again, and again, and again. It was a present from Nana last year - a recording of her reading this Christmas classic. It is complete with a greeting from Nana that puts a huge grin on his face each and every time.

Winter
It is a winter wonderland out there with frosted trees and piles of snow for bejos boy to climb. We got a bit more snow than expected, but the bulk of it came Saturday. It snowed all. day. long.
Bejos boy was quite a help shoveling, as you can imagine, and could not be convinced inside unless tempted by cocoa or a train movie.

tree hunting
Into the woods we went, with the same family of friends from last year.
The boys "protected" us from animals, wielding large sticks and climbing to the best vantage points of any and every downed tree while the grown-ups hunted for the perfect tree to fill a corner location.
Did you know that there is a manufacturer out there who makes a tree with a flat backside, specifically for apartment and city dwelling folks. It is called the "Manhattan". We found ourselves nature's own version and went merrily on our way.
No mud this year and not a drop of snow. It was quite a bit cleaner than last year.
Trying to get a picture of all these kiddos was just about impossible. No one looking the same way at the same time. So goes it...
