We had a very merry and memorable Christmas this year. We took the girls iceskating for the first time. I think that is quickly going to become a family tradition. We spent time with aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents, and even got to visit all the great-grandparents! We had a magical Christmas morning full of squeals, ahhhhs and hugs.
