December 2010

We had a wonderful December! We took a great trip, we went to museums and did fun holiday activities with friends, we celebrated Hanukkah and Christmas. Gabe had a blast and really began to 'get it' this year. I have to admit that I'm pretty pooped from all the festivities. Here's a look into the past month and all the fun we had...

Posie has to get in on the wrapping action...

You have a beautiful family. We are waiting for our referral from South Korea--you son is adorable!!

What a fun 2011 you will have with him. We are hoping to get our referral and travel next year!

Kari said...

Such great pics! He is so cute!

He dresses so well! I love how he shoveled the snow. i am really hoping to get to S&I next year, the Korea tree looked great. We lived very close as children and went every holiday season.

Looks like you guys had so much fun this holiday season. It was great to see you guys at the Arboreteum!

Christine said...

Your month and holiday looks great! Lots of fun stuff. My favorite photos are the last ones. Gabe in that dress shirt with the spiked hair is too cute for words.

Elizabeth Frick said...

Oooh, I LOVE the trees at Sci & Ind! We'll have to make the trek up there sometime for it.
I think I'm going to have to do a "month in review" post too. So many pictures and events! I can't keep up!!!

Grace said...

kelly said...

Great December recap (or 'cap, as Gabe would say, right?). I love all these photos. I think Gabe gets handsomer (is that a word?) by the day! Love the spiky hair look :) I always love seeing Gabe and his Seoul brothers together - and yes Sue they DO look like they are in college. Look at the attitude in their faces! :)

PS - I'm pooped from all the holiday festivities and travel too, seems like we've been going-going-going since Thanksgiving and I'm ready for some boring old routine!

I'm exhausted too... it's worth it, but man, I want some down time! I love all these shots... but that last one makes me want to jump on a plane and visit!!!

(Don't think I missed the circus top though!)

Unknown said...

Looks like you guys had a blast. Glad my son is not the only one with an affinity towards ladies footwear. :)

Krista said...

A Korean Christmas tree! How cool!
And yes, the boot shot is great!
I hope you had a fantastic Christmas!

Colleen said...

Kara said...

Okay...the boots photo is priceless! Looks like a great December! Glad you made the most of the holidays...they just keep getting better and better don't they?

Birdie said...

Busy is right! What a great December, and it's so funny to see Gabe with a shovel just like Dad. Your pictures are great - Bring on January 2011!

PS - I love your cat's name!

Mi Yeon said...

WOW! All pictures are very wonderful! The tree with Korean flag is very nice!

Patti and Rick said...

It looks like you were very busy. I love the pictures of him shoveling. So helpful!

Michelle said...

On hell of month but a darn good one! LOVE the pic of the Seoul bros and def love the one of G in your boots. I like the monthly recap as it saves me blogging time. Hmm, may have to steal that one!

Janet said...

What a busy & fun month you all had. Is that a circus PJ top? If so...ummm, Gabe: where are the pants?! Funny.

I love the shots of Gabe in his blue sweater vest (sooooooo cute!! I'm a sucker for boys in vests!) checking out his tool set. Adorable.

I had forgotten all about the trees around the world display at that museum. I haven't been there in YEARS!! Beautiful. The Seoul brothers look a tad annoyed to have to pose for that shot...I agree with Sue & Kelly...college boy expressions on their cute faces, for sure. :-)

Spiky hair, tons 'o presents, and shoveling time...fun, fun, and more fun.

Min said...

So many great photos!! I love the one with him in your boots- too funny! (And I just posted a photo of Anna in Dave's boots...)

Gabe is adorable!

HJ said...

Happy New Year Joanna! Love all the photos... especiallyG abe shoveling the snow and his spiky cute hair =)

Kala said...

Love all the pictures. He is so cute shoveling snow with Dada!

Kris said...

Posie! Hee, hee!! So funny. Gabe in your boots and the spiky hair shot are hilarious too! Sounds like you had a busy, but fun December.

Rach@In His Hands said...

What a fantastic December! My absolute fav shot is the one of Gabe in the Ringling Bros top and your boots. Perfect!
