The Holidays!

Well, I have been pretty terrible about keeping up with this blog so here is an extremely abbreviated summary of Halloween through New Years. Due to Thomas' fair skin and lack of hair, the obvious choice for a Halloween Costume this year was Charlie Brown! This may have been the easiest Homemade costume ever. A yellow polo shirt and some black felt worked great. We had a great day trick or treating with Ava and Ella despite the cold weather too!
Thanksgiving was a great day of family, and food. We spent the day with Grandma and Grandpa LaRoche and the Hacker family. Grandma made a fabulous meal of which Thomas enjoyed Stuffing and Cranberry sauce (He was a little picky).
Christmas this year was extremely busy and lots of fun. We spent the 23rd with the Husar's and Thomas was quite the source of entertainment for everyone. Christmas Eve was spent with the Brownlee's and on this night Thomas showed everyone just where he gets his heft from. I think he was eating dinner for nearly an hour straight. Christmas Day was spent with the Hackers and Grandma and Grandpa LaRoche. Thomas loved running around with all the kids and playing with everything that Santa brought for everyone. Christmas Night we headed to the airport and hopped a flight to New Mexico where we spent the next 4 days with the Ligons! We loved that Thomas was able to see so much of his extended family over the Days of Christmas. Here are a few pictures of our Christmas Adventures.
For New Years we headed to Wisconsin where we rented a very interesting house with our friends from Knox. Thomas was quite the trooper during the 4 hour car ride too.
So there you have it... our holidays in a nutshell. I realize that I haven't included any video so while this is unrelated to the holidays, I hope you enjoy seeing how far Thomas has come since the videos posted this summer. He is quite the strong man and he is running all over the place these days.
