HIGHLIGHTS:
- We saw both my family and most of Lance's family for the holidays.
- I lost four pounds over the holiday season and am only five pounds away from my pre-pregnancy weight.
- Elisabeth loved opening presents.
- Elisabeth was able to meet some of her relatives she hasn't met before.
- We had Andy's Frozen Custard THREE times in four days.
- Lance as able to play his new game, Puerto Rico, a few times with his brothers.
- All three of us got a stomach virus in MO and managed to pass it along to the 12+ people staying at Lance's mom's home.
- Elisabeth and I then managed to bring this horrible sickness to both OK and MN - leaving at least nine people vomiting in 2009, thus me earning the nickname of "Typhiod Kristi" as I no longer felt sick but got everyone sick no mater where we went.
- E.B. and I had to fly on SIX flights between Christmas day and the first week in January. One flight took us through Chicago(which, if you didn't know, it is always a bad idea to fly through Chicago in the winter). We won't be doing that again. Ever.
Elisabeth hanging out with her Aunt Lea at Grandma Bev's home. Before she got her sick. :-)
SNOW BUNNIES! Elisabeth with her cousins Tera and Adrianna. The temperature stayed above zero while we were in MN, so that was a plus!
Elisabeth opening gifts on Christmas morning. She loved to eat the wrapping
paper.
Our Christmas Eve angel. We were so thankful for the Christmas miracles in our lives this past Christmas. For the sweet baby girl we have in our home, for the family we were able to see and for the chance to celebrate the birth of our Savior as a family.

I absolutely love that dress! She is darling! We just finished a round of the flu at our house. Somehow I escaped it, but the other three didn't....those germs of yours must be pretty strong, hitting us here all the way down in TN :)
Somehow I need to have a Christmas ornament with this last picture on it...any ideas of what would be the best design? -kps
