Happy Holidays!

Ellsey's first Christmas!

We had a family Christmas at our home in Ames and also went to NW Iowa to see Grandma's and Grandpa's, aunts, uncles, and many other extended family members.  Ellsey loved seeing everyone and is thankful for all of her gifts!

Got the Christmas tree decorated with Mommy!
Working hard to get that wrapping paper off!  At one point, Ellsey got a small paper cut on her nose from getting a little too excited with the wrapping paper!  :)
Mmmmmm, wrapping paper.
Merry Christmas!
Ellsey's first Christmas!  She loved it!
Checking out the gifts!
New sled! (now just need some snow...)
It was a very exciting day!

Ellsey spent her first New Year's at Grandpa and Grandma Boersma's with Uncle Kyle, Uncle Justin and Autie Kate while Mommy and Daddy went out with some friends.  She had a great time and is looking forward to 2012 ahead!
