Christmas--Photo overload

On Christmas Eve Penelope threw my camera and completly broke it. I was so dissapointed at the idea of not being able to take pics on Christmas morning. The video camera takes pics (see tree below) but they aren't a high enough resolution to print. Imagine my excitement when the first present opened was a Nikon cool pix! So here's photo overload as I tried to figure out my new camera.Penny and daddy playing with her new top
Opening presentsMommy and PennyA Christmas walk. It was in the high 30s so everything was a slushy mess. "I love Christmas!"
Opening presents with Papa John
Such a face!
There's a smile
We went to the Minnesota Children's Museum. What a great place! Penelope LOVED the tot room Only in MN would a museum have toy ice fishing for toddlers
Sorry, darling, you won't see big yellow flowers for a long time

Then we went sledding. Aunt Jennifer and Princess Pea
All bundled up

Our last outing was the zoo. We mainly looked at the indoor exhibits. Penny loved the acquarium. I'll post the video on youtube
Despite the cold air Chris had to have a sno cone. Any time he finds a non-Blue Bunny sno cone he must buy it
Exploring the Russia exhibit
That was a lot of fun Grandmama

aw I'm glad that your parents and Jen were able to make it. And I'm glad that you got a new camera so there won't be a blank spot with no pictures in Penny's life :). Were you able to get any video coverage of Collin cracking up at Chris? I saw that you were trying to get it, but I don't know if you did or not. Anyway, I'm glad that you guys had an awesome Christmas!

(I LOVE that picture of Penny...the close-up that shows her serious face before she smiles....that is so cute!)
