Christmas Travels

Okay...this is the last post to catch up!! Well, I know Lil' SB's Omi, Papa & other relatives will appreciate my posting of these pics. Anyway, so...for Christmas we headed out West to see Lil' SB's paternal grandparents. She was excited because it had been about 6 months since they had seen each other. Other than having a flight delay of 5 hours, it was a successful travel adventure. Here are some pictures of Christmas morning & evening...
Lil' SB excitedly unwraps presents from Santa.


Lil' SB enjoys some of the books Santa left for her.


Lil' SB found the recorder Papa SB used when he was a little boy.

Lil' SB checks out her new tap shoes & ballet shoes.



Lil' SB received a few new stuffed animals (Tigger bounces & the moose dances & sings!!)


Lil' SB reads to her Aunt.
One of the fun things about visiting Papa SB's home town is that it's also my old stomping ground. I lived there from 5th grade until after my sophomore year in high school. Anyway, Papa SB and I took Lil' SB to the local Putt-Putt where we used to hang out as middle schoolers. It was a flashback for us, but a new, exciting experience for Lil' SB. We had a blast!!!

Thanksgiving at Omi & Papa's House

I'm still catching up on my posts...so here goes. Thanksgiving '08 was an adventure to the East coast. Lil' SB and I took a plane to my parents' house while Papa SB drove (he wanted to stop to attend a college football game with his cousin). It's funny because Lil' SB has become a great, little traveler. She is so used to the process that I don't even have to tell her to take off her shoes at the security checkpoint! We keep the same routine...we take her backpack w/ her DVD player and movies along w/ several books. We always stop to get a treat...this time it was jelly beans...and take a tour of the airport while we wait to board. Anyway, here are some pictures from our vacation...
