Christmas Extended!

Our Christmas celebrations were extended once again as we welcomed the Bruinsma side of the family to Southern California!  Aunt Betsy and Grandpa and Grandma came out last week to celebrate Christmas, and of course see baby Olivia!  Betsy was here for a shorter visit (and had not been out last month!), so she insisted on being the baby hog while she was here!  Little Olivia was thrilled to have extra hands to hold her. 
 
Despite a raining morning on Saturday, the sky cleared and it ended up being a great day to be at the zoo!  Shane didn't want his new Hulk to miss out on the fun!
 
When Grandpa wasn't holding the baby, he was most often found reading the Spiderman books to the kids!  He read those books too many times to even count! 
 
And while everyone was here, Olivia celebrated being one month old!  Amazing how fast time flies!  She is doing really well, growing quite a bit, and becoming more alert and more fun all the time!  It's going to be an exciting year watching her continue to grow and develop.  Since Grandpa and Grandma were in town, Steve and I were even able to get away for a New Years Eve date night!  Just as 2012 was a year of fun and adventure, I am sure 2013 will bring more of the same!
