Christmas Edition

This is just a quick summary of the Laws' Christmas celebration; nothing special but fond memories of BB's first Christmas...


#1 The Christmas tree ornament. Got this one many many years ago (7 years? Maybe) when Chean & I visited Portland from New York for the 1st time.


#2


#3 The miniature house is kinda like the one that we're living in Boulder now :D


#4


#5 Chean doesn't seem to understand why do we need a peacock sitting on the Christmas tree... Hmm... I just happen to like peacock, an auspicious symbol of good fortune and prosperity.


#6 Needless to say, the aeroplane represents our long distance relationship ;)


#7 Chloe's precious hand print at 6m/o, we also made her foot print.


#8 I know you'll ask, it's Pearhead Babyprint Holiday Ornament from Amazon.com. Super easy to make ;)


#9 Miyaki, our baby that lives forever in memory. Not a day goes by that we don't miss you... What Christmas looks like in doggie heaven? (Thank you Marsha for finding us this loving ornament)


#10 Never thought a simple Christmas tree could add so much warmth to the house, why don't we do that earlier? @.@


#11 On the actual Christmas day.


#12 Just when we thought we're not going to have a white Christmas, Baby Chloe woke up to a snowy morning.


#13 Unwrapping her pressies~~ Thank you Auntie Yin for the Elks & Angels Cuddle Bear! BB loves its soft fur~~


#14 Manhattan Toy Baby Stella, an Asian doll. How thoughtful! Thank you Auntie Marsha!


#15 Nope, she's not into the Burberry dress I bought her; it turned out that BB likes plastic bag more than anything (=.=)lll


#16 Still prefer the plastic bag... By the way, I'll never ever ordered Burberry children apparel from Neiman Marcus again. Lesson learned. Purchased 4 items (size ranges from 12 months til 24 months) and none of them comes with decent packaging. I ended up placing them in a cheap Gymboree gift box, S.I.G.H.


#17 "Mama, what did you get for Christmas?"


#17 "Tory Burch wallet? I like my plastic bag better!" And there she goes, spending the rest of afternoon playing with the plastic bag. Under my supervision of course...

#18 Love this pic max!


#19 You've probably seen this pic on my Facebook, I wrote:

小时候，唯一的圣诞愿望就是到教堂做礼拜、唱圣歌、玩游戏、交换礼物。年少时，总想在平安夜那天与知己好友买醉、狂欢、吐心事。谈恋爱时，最向往和心爱的人一起享用圣诞大餐，然后浪漫地倒数着圣诞节的到来。长大后，成了家，有了孩子后才发现，圣诞节真正的意义就是一家人平安无恙，和睦融融地围着火炉及圣诞树聊天取暖，看着窗外的雪花，喝着温热的巧克力奶，手里忙着拆开家人用心为自己挑选的礼物。祝大家有个温馨、喜乐、难忘的圣诞节。记得要幸福哦！(^_−)−☆


❅ Merry Christmas everyone (although belated) ❅ 圣诞节快乐 ❅
