The Gibson Girls: First Christmas

The girls celebrated their first Christmas at a very busy pace. On Christmas Eve we had Grandpa and Grandma H, cousin Emily and Uncle Chris over. We had fun little snack food and a few Christmas drinks. We opened presents and had a great time. The girls (and Chris and I) were spoiled as usual.

Christmas morning we had our first holiday as a family - Just Chris, the girls and I. We opened our stockings and presents then we went over to Grandma and Grandpa G's and along with Auntie Kelly we opened our stockings and had Christmas breakfast then opened presents. We got a lot more loot!! We must have been good this year!

We went home for a bit to relax and let the girls have a nap. Then it was back to the Gibson house for the big family dinner. Almost everyone was there and it was a lot of fun. Their cousin Kaspar was there and the girls enjoyed stealing his toys. Great Grandma Gibson was there too and she held both girls. On Boxing Day Uncle Bobby and Auntie Em flew in from Vancouver. It was the first time they met the girls and I think they instantly fell in love. Uncle Bobby came over every day they were in Saskatoon to spend as much time as he could with Abbey and Aida. The girls were the first babies that Auntie Em has ever held! I think the girls love them just as much too. We look forward to our road trip out to see them in the summer!!

A few family pictures with Chris, Abbey, Aida and myself. Looking back they seem so small!

Uncle Bobby held them as much as he could. He and Em got Chris some mini-helmets for Christmas and they the girl's heads were small enough to fit into them!
