Lots of fun during a visit with Nana and Pop.

Nana snuggles.

Nana and Mary didn't hesitate to take pictures outside, even if the wind was brutal. 

The end of our New Year's eve, before heading home. 

Earlier in the night Rosie and Nina thoroughly enjoyed cleaning up the confetti.

We're shower cap people ;-).

Workout pals.

Enjoying some pre-dinner snacks on New Year's Eve.

Getting ready for fireworks.

Sparklers!

Rosie didn't quite last until midnight.

Making snowflakes.

And masks too, apparently.

Family bowling.

Mary didn't want to use bumpers, so her score was very low. She still had fun, though.

Rosie used bumpers and did the best she could to get the ball down the lane, even if it was at incredibly slow speeds.

Family movie night with "A Muppet Christmas Carol."

Christmas Eve.

A picture of me and Bjossi, thanks to Rosie.

Mary tries to hold Inga every chance she gets.

Rosie's first time seeing the northern lights.

Sledding on the one hill with enough snow. 

Rosie's second time skating, and she was tougher than expected. 

Ice skating! The reindeer wasn't all that helpful with helping Rosie learn to skate, but she thought it was "so cute."

Mary felt the same. 

Hanging with Mary's pals from preschool. Rosie took this opportunity to show off her side-eye. 

Christmas Rosie.

Rosie and her friend are swinging pros.

Gingerbread houses!

Rosie's gingerbread boy (left) and girl (right) have plans to get married.

Rosie barely fits in the shopping cart car, but she insisted she was comfortable. 

Mary's hair for "crazy hair day" at school.

Rosie doing the crab walk at gymnastics.
