Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you all! We have made it safely to Washington for Christmas, and although Isaac's first Christmas was spent on airplanes, it was exciting for him nonetheless. Much to my relief, we weren't confronted by blizzards or lengthy flight delays like I was afraid of. And Isaac seemed to have a great time along the way too!


The night before Christmas Isaac opened his first Christmas gift. This one is from Uncle Seth and Aunt Amy. Isaac says, Oooooh, I don't know what this is but looks like fun!
He loves his new toy! It's not like anything he's ever seen before, and he just couldn't stop playing with it. It plays music and teaches him numbers and shapes. So much fun!

Christmas Day 2008, first airplane ride for Isaac. He turned heads in his cute Santa hat, and even made the pilots coo.
And what do you know, he slept during both flights! It just so happened that they were both scheduled at his regular naptimes, so the trips were no big deal.

Isaac woke up in the last half hour or so and enjoyed the view of the snowladen mountains of Salt Lake City below.
We had a two-hour layover in Salt Lake City, which turned out to be a nice time for a break. Isaac enjoyed some lunch and some playtime in a quiet corner of the terminal.
This was the view from the terminal where we were hangin' out. Isn't it pretty? The snowstorm that was supposed to hit Salt Lake City was nowhere to be found - much to my delight!
Kevin, getting some laughs out of Isaac.
Isaac slept til the final half hour of the second flight too. He got so much attention just for being so cute on the plane! He was having a blast, probably mostly because he wasn't confined to his carseat.
There are just no words for this... He's just too adorable! I can hardly contain myself!! A little bit o' fuzzy hat head here.Getting ready for landing, there's snowy Seattle below.
Thank you, Lord for the safe flights. You know how I was feeling a bit nervous about the weather. You gave me peace and paved the way with smooth sailing and no snowstorms. I so appreciate it!

Isaac is so adorable in his santa p.j.'s and santa hat! I am not surprised that he got a lot of attention during the day! I am also thankful that you arrived in WA safely. I prayed for your safe arrival throughout the day. The Lord reminded me that I could trust Him to keep you safe. He is all powerful and is in control of the weather. Praise the Lord!
