My mom's flight made it into town on time (can you believe it with all the weather problems?) and we enjoyed having her in town the week of Christmas. The snow was around all week and just kept coming every few days, making for some crazy road conditions. We were so glad to have Matt's 4x4 truck to navigate getting out of our neighborhood and around in un-groomed parking lots.

Colin is a little camera shy; actually, he hates the camera, so this is the best we could do for the Christmas Eve picture after church. He did pretty well sitting in "big boy" church and really enjoyed clapping with the rockin' tunes from the Three Wisemen.

Take a picture quick before I dig into presents, mom! Notice Elliot in the background sneaking behind the tree to get at the curly ribbon, which he just loves, and which makes him so sick!
This was a year of Cars. he just loves everything Cars related, especially McQueen, which he is holding here. He also really likes pirates and has a pirate ship fleet that will have many fun pirate battles. He also enjoyed reading the "Pirates Night Before Christmas" this Christmas season.

After enjoying presents, Dad and Colin headed down the hill to go sledding. Colin enjoyed riding backwards, which is what he and his dad called, "Mater style," since Mater drives backwards in the movie Cars. Remember...all things Cars!
