Christopher Pop-In-Kins

Our Christmas Break just flew by - it didn't help that either David or I was sick for most of it, but it was really the best time to be sick since we didn't have anywhere to be.  David had the last two weeks of the year off from work and the girls were out of school until the 4th so we had a lot of family time together.  There were a lot of days that we didn't go anywhere at all - it was actually kinda nice to be cooped up inside.  We went back to 'normal' yesterday so now I am going to attempt to play catch-up on all the fun things we did manage to get done over the holiday!

We added a new Christmas tradition to our family this year - we welcomed Christopher Pop-In-Kins into our home.  The kids LOVED him - even the older girls got really into him.  They had so much fun looking for him every morning and would get so excited when someone found him.  They can't wait until he comes back next year.  Trysten still asks for him once in a while - he calls him 'Pop' ;-)

Trysten got a hold of the camera one day and went looking for Christopher.  It was set on video mode and he pushed the button to take a picture and started a video instead.  You can hear him looking for Christopher (aka Pop) and see him looking in some of the past places he had been hiding in before - the Christmas tree, bathroom shower curtain, the garage, etc.  And if you look really carefully right at the end of the video, he catches a quick glimpse of Christopher - can you spot him?  Just to warn you, the video is a little shakey, it was of course the work of a 23 month old - I hope it doesn't make anyone sick ;-P

Thanks for visiting!
