Ava likes Christmas. She told me. This being her first Christmas, she experienced many new things. First she got to sit on Santa's lap, which her cousins quickly discovered was actually Grandpa Hagen.
Ava took a visit to the Oakland Temple to see the lights. Afterward we went to San Francisco with my side of the fam. Every year we go to the city to pick out a Christmas ornament and have dinner together.
On Christmas Eve Doug and Ashley stopped by for our yearly visit. It is now somewhat of a tradition to see these guys at Christmas, and only at Christmas. Maybe this year we'll get a little crazy and see what the Clarks are like during the summer.
Ava's new favorite spot. She spent a lot of time under the tree.
I was excited to have a kid participate in the Nativity this year, and as the star of the show. Here Ava sleeps in her decked out manger.
All tuckered out after opening all her presents Christmas morning.
Spending time with Great Grandma Clyde on Christmas day.
Sometimes Christmas day gets a little slow so of course we entertained ourselves by taking pictures of our baby. What else would new doting parents do?

Sorry for being lame.
How I love this post, and Ava, and our yearly tradition! We would love to see you in the summer, but only if it's on an important day like July 4th or our anniversary.
