Meeting Holden

We made a quick overnight trip to Seattle to see Dylan & Erin and meet baby Holden, who is already 5-1/2 weeks old. He is so precious...I'd forgotten how little newborns are...and he makes the cutest noises when he sleeps. And he sneezes in 3's...seriously, he's quite the sneezer, doing so often during the day, and almost always 3 in a row. It is so very cute.

We were had an unexpected, pleasant surprise when we arrived at their house. About 30 minutes after we got there (around 11:00a) it started snowing! And it wasn't just a skiff of snow...huge, fluffy snowflakes came down for most of the afternoon. And I thought we would enjoy our first snow of the season in Red Lodge over Christmas! Silly me. We had a blast playing in the snow...we built a couple of snowmen. had snowball fights with the neighbor kids, and enjoyed hot cocoa and a warm fire afterwards.

Thanks for having us, Dylan, Erin & Holden. We love you guys and are so happy for you!!!



Holden's first snow...he's bundled up in the sling under Erin's coat!

Mason gave a good effort at trying to catch the giant snowflakes on her tongue
