Christmas Eve

We had Christmas Eve on Dec. 23 so we could accomodate travel schedules. It was the traditional Keal event with fantastic lasagna. Morgan was really struggling with a the new people and the excirement. At one point whe put herself on time out just to have some alone time.

I know it's not about Morgan and it's not mine - but I thought it was funny. I'm convinced the 2 surfers in the beginning are my friends Randy and Drew who almost obsessively surf Gitchigumee.

It's purple!

Over Thanksgiving break Jim started the process of re-doing the 'red' room and turning it into a little girl's room. Last weekend Morgan moved in!

Iceskating!

On my birthday we headed outsdie - YEAH, and iceskated for the first time this season. In grand midwest tradition, there is a great outdoor rink next to the elementary school that Morgan will someday attend.  The warming house was supposed to open but somebody didn't get the memo - so kids were out shoveling the hockey rink, the figure skating rink was covered with snow and kids shoes were lined up on the bench.

Winter Air

Her hair is still so fly-away that even the slightest drop in humidity sends it up into the air.
