The 4th and last Christmas celebration: Grammy Sharon's in Parker, Colorado. (See VIDEO at the end.) We arrived on New Year's Day, our frequent flier miles taking our free trip through TWO connections--a very long travel day! But the twins are seasoned travelers now, our GoGo Babyz attachments to their car seats definitely worth the cost as we pull them around the airport in their luxurious Britax recliners. :-)
At our family Xmas, Gracie got a new baby doll, or "baby daughter" as she called it, and she fed it with a baby bottle that Mommy actually used when she was a baby 38 years ago (see picture)!
, 
Gracie was petrified of her new laughing Cookie Monster (and actually still won't let Mommy turn it on at the time of this post), but the twins loved playing dress-up with some girls' hand-me-down costumes. Grammy found Chance's obsession with the princess high heels quite humorous. 
Chance: "Oh, doesn't this look fab-u-lous on me? Don't tell Daddy I'm wearing it, though." 
Gracie shakes her "groove thang" as Snow White . . .We took the Lightrail to downtown Denver one day, one of Chance's favorite trips.
Aunt Gill and Uncle Sam held Gracie for some of the ride.And, of course, we used the new sleds from Grammy -- First, Daddy with Chance on the driveway (Gracie wasn't sure about it) and then Daddy with Gracie up in Conifer, CO (Chance cried all the way down the hill).
Great Aunt Haze gave the twins such perfectly suited gifts: a tea set for Grace and a tool box for Chance!
Aunt Gill brought the kids their first woodworking project from the Home Depot kids' classes: bookends! While Mommy and Daddy were in Colo. Springs visiting Shannon (for a yummy pork dinner), the twins build and painted the bookends.
The little builders:
And the new bathtub toys (Thanks, Aunt Gill! Chance still loves them!) and paints also were a huge hit.
