Christmas 2011

We had such a great Christmas.  It was so great to be home with our families.  We flew into Canada the week before Christmas, where my parents picked us up.  London greeted them with this shirt!
 (It says, "BIG SISTER summer 2012")

We spent Christmas day with both families. We went to church with Darcy's family, where he and his brothers sang. Then we went back to my parents new home in Raymond to open gifts.  My brothers, Rob and Mack were there and Shawni and Blake. It was nice to have everyone together.
It was so fun to watch London, this year! I don't think she totally understands the whole opening presents thing, but she had fun with the wrapping paper and new toys.
Next, we headed over to the Shurtz' for more gift opening.  It's was pretty crazy there, as there are now 5 grandchildren and way too many presents! London opened a few presents, but had had enough by then, so we put her down for a nap half way through.
We spent the rest of our holiday relaxing and spending time with our families. Darcy and I celebrated our 4th anniversary on December 28!
Darcy, headed back to Michigan on January 1st.  I decided to stay in Canada for his next semester so I could work and get my hours that are needed to keep up my license.  It's hard to be apart but we think it's the best thing for our family right now.
