This is a tale of 3 different Christmas celebrations. We started the festivities on December 21st in Boise at Papa Gene and Grandma Danas house (or Gena as Meredith calls them). The big hit of the night was Papa and Grandmas new puppy Maddy. She really liked Merediths velvet dress and Meredith liked her cuddles.
Meredith and Maddy
Opening the new table and chair set!
Mom and Meredith
A new bike too!The next morning we packed up and flew to Spokane. Thus began Christmas #2 and Nana and Papa Mikes house. We were greeted in Spokane with beautiful fluffy snow. Lots and lots of it.
Meredith got to open gifts all day long on Christmas Eve. This was the "big" gift.
A doll house!
Opening all the furniture for the house. Thanks Aunt Kortney and Uncle Chris!
Meredith played with the doll house all day long.
Papa Mikes grandson Dan and his parents joined us later that night...
Here is Meredith waiting so patiently to open presents.
Checking out Dans new book.
Wrapping paper is still fun!
Meredith really got into the headbands that were in her stocking.
Christmas day we headed into town to stay with Grandma KK and Papa Jim and celebrate Christmas #3. By then Meredith had the present thing down pat.
Opening her new bitty baby.
New cash register!
Taking a break with Grandma.
After dinner coloring with Uncle Scott and Cousin Brett.

After dinner coloring with Uncle Scott and Cousin Brett.We have had a great stay in Spokane, all 8 days of it! The snow has been great, Jesses cold has not been so great. We were lucky to have dinner with Jeff and Naomi (home from Portugal for a bit) and our good friends Jeff and Laura Fleming. We've even seen a couple movies!
Meredith is really into getting herself dressed. She's still learning.
It wouldn't be a complete trip to Spokane without a stop at the carousel. Meredith really liked going around and around. Jesse had to do the honors, I can't handle it!
After a couple rides, Papa Jim took over.
Wheeeew!

Wheeeew!We'll be home soon. Hopefully our dogs are still alive. It'll be like Christmas all over again since all our presents headed back to Boise the night of the 26th. Meredith won't know what hit her!
