Christmas Fun














Happy new year! Just wanted to share some photos of our Christmas season that started rather early this year. Bryan's mom arrived Thanksgiving night, and the partying began right away. She accompanied us to choose our Christmas tree, the she and Fiona were responsible for the important job of decorating it. We enjoyed the tree light ceremony downtown, lights and music at the Grotto, building a gingerbread house, among many other adventures.

Fiona received some excellent gifts thanks to many of you. I'm working on thank you cards, so this "thank you" will have to suffice for the time being. It was a very happy Christmas and new year. We hope the same is true for you and your family.

The Great Event: Trick-or-Treating

Finally, here are the last of our fall 2011 photos. I apologize for the multiple posts. Our computer runs slowly and can't handle more than 3 photo uploads per post. As you can see the Bustamante's have enjoyed a fun-filled autumn with pumpkin-hunting trips, trick-or-treating, and pumpkin decorating. This fall has been especially fun since Fiona is almost 3 and really enjoys each activity. It's amazing how children enrich experiences and make old traditions more exciting. 

This year, Fiona's friend, Yoav (the dinosaur), and his mom, Abigail -  our friends from Israel - joined us in our trick-or-treating fun. Yoav and Fiona scored in the candy department. We had a happy dinosaur and princess on our hands!

Now, the weather is getting colder and we are looking forward to a visit from the Grandparents, Thanksgiving, and new Christmas traditions. Stay tuned for more photos as the holidays move into full swing. Lots of love!
 

More trick-or-treating
