Hello 2015

A bit of silence here from Kicken Bejos, although I promise you that it has been everything but silent in Casa Bejos. As we take down the Christmas tree today, and try to find home for our new and exciting belongings it's time to reflect upon the holiday season and sort through the photos that captured our memories. This will be a long one, filled with oodles and oodles of photos.

The boys were thrilled to welcome mama and papa.
























Christmas this year was spent out of town, nestled in the middle of the Sonoran desert with mama and papa Bejos and sister and brother-in-law bejos too.





The grandmothers collaborated on creating a Night Before Christmas box for each boy, filled with Christmas books, snacks, hot cocoa, and new pajamas. Once changed they called Nana to share their new delights. Thank goodness for Face Time.





Christmas morning was a new experience for us. The eldest Bejos boy "got" Christmas this year and was very much interested in the present opening, and hoarding....




And while the desert wasn't quite as warm as we might have liked, we fit in a lot of outdoor play. 







And we enjoyed some downtime.


 New Year's Eve was low key, but filled with balloons. 


But New Year's Day was perhaps the best surprise of all. Snow in the desert!




























And then back to home where, lucky, lucky us, Santa made a second visit.

























Happy New Year from Casa Bejos!

Christmas tree hunting

This morning has finally brought the slightest dusting of snow to our neck of the woods. It is in stark contrast to the warm sunny day we enjoyed last weekend on our annual Christmas tree hunt.
















This tradition has become one of our favorites. Especially watching our families grow and change. This year was, by far, the easiest, in terms of enjoying ourselves and being present enough to actually have adult conversation. We look forward to the day when we turn the saw over to the kids.
