Christmas Day, we spent a lazy morning at the lodge. We had a little breakfast and then casually packed up and headed back to Portland. We took a few quick pics before ending our christmas escapade.

Ready and Waitng
So, even though the kids got to meet the real Santa, they were still ready for his visit later that night while they were tucked in their beds. It was a bit of an untraditional Christmas Eve and morning, and somewhat challenging to pull off as we were all in the same room, but it all worked out. Santa brought a gift to the lodge where we were staying and left the rest for them under our tree at home awaiting their arrival. Nothing makes me happier than adorable kids in Christmas pajamas! Funny, they were all quite eager to have their pictures taken. I was trying to take pictures of the girls, and Lincoln kept climbing up on the fireplace and smiling at me. It was adorable really.

Snow Play
We really had one full day at Timberline to enjoy the snow, so we tried to take advantage of a white Christmas. I always have big plans of lots of great pictures, but considering that it was freezing and Kevin and Lincoln weren't big fans of the snow we tried to snap a quick family shot, and then the girls and some of the cousins hung around and attempted to go sledding and just played around in the snow. The best family shot of the trip, but check out the beautiful snow covered trees!

Christmas with the Lawrence's
We Made It!
Monday, we headed to Portland. I was not at all looking forward to the traveling part of this trip. The thought of flying at Christmas with a one year old is not my idea of fun. However, we made it without too much trouble. There was the typical behavior expected from Lincoln on the second flight, but nothing near what it could have been. We arrived late afternoon, and were all glad to finally get off of the plane and stretch a little. Lincoln hanging with Grandaddy.

School Christmas Performances
The day before Christmas breaks is one of the most bittersweet days of the year. It is filled with all kinds of fun events, but trying to remember to take all the presents, have my classroom party as well as make a visit to each of the girls parties, not to mention all of the kids are wound up ready for the break, makes for an exhausting day! I did get to swing by the kindergarten performance and watch Londyn sing a few songs. She was glad I made it considering I missed her Thanksgiving songs.

Winterfest 2010
Ok, so maybe it's not Rockefeller Center, but we still had a great time ice skating under the stars. I have been wanting to visit downtown Tulsa for the last couple of years to try out the outdoor ice skating rink, but never made it until this year. We all had a great time, and the girls did a pretty impressive job considering it was their first time. Fun with friends!
