Christmas 2011!

 We took Phaedra to the fancy Santa Claus at the Darien Sport Shop (not your average sport shop), and she didn't cry or get scared.  She simply pulled at his white beard, hair by hair and gave us all a very serious face.  It was very cute.

 Getting ready for church and very excited to go.

 For Christmas break, we went out to Utah to visit Corinne's sister McKell and extended family.  One of the days, we went to Hardware Ranch to see the Elk.  Phaedra enjoyed see the animals -- she mooooed at them.

 Christmas morning at McKell's awesome house. Phaedra got some wonderful gifts from Grandma and Grandpa Curtis, Aunt McKell and Uncle Mike (awesome clothes and a stuffed buck from Cabelas), and from Grandma and Grandpa Broadbent.

 She got the Little People Nativity from Peggy and Roger.

 And a cute little doll in a pea pod from Grandma Broadbent.

 Here she is playing with her new doll!

 Roger gave Peggy a really cool gift for Christmas -- 2 days in a professional recording studio!!!  Corinne and I sang and recorded two of her songs, which will soon be available on iTunes.

 Here is Corinne singing away...

 And Peggy recording at the piano.

During our time in Utah we went to see my Grandma Janet and also got to see my cousin Joy and her family.  It was great to see everyone!
