Happy 2013!

Hard to believe it is all over and we are already almost 2 weeks into the new year! Around here we were pretty busy with the holiday season; it lasts almost 3 weeks here! We put the tree up on 27 November and it couldn't come down until January 6th! In case you are wondering why, here in Spain January 6 is the day the children open their presents that have been brought to them by the Three Wise Men (or Magic Kings), so you can imagine what a blast for a multi cultural child! Noah was quite ill on Christmas, but as you can see he mustered up enough energy to put his fever behind him for a few hours and enjoy all of his goodies from Santa! It was quite a season, and Noah is really getting the hang of this whole holiday thing. He is a great cookie making helper and a pro at ripping open presents...next year shall be a whole new story. Here are some photos of us enjoying the holidays with the family.
