Traditions...and BIG birthdays!!

So...it has become an annual Christmas tradition that three generations of Anastasis get together to bake cookies...and we all look forward to it. We spent a very snowy Saturday baking, listening Christmas music, and tasting our hard work...here's a peek at our fun!













We got about four inches of snow that Saturday, and as soon as the kids found free time, they were out in it...sledding, building forts, having snowball fights...I was taking advantage of an empty house and so I decorated for Christmas...hence the lack of pictures from outside...I did happen to see a cute snow bunny in the backyard and I got her picture...




So, guess what?!...
Bob and Wanda "turned 140" this past week...they celebrated as any two 70 year olds should...dinner at Red Robin with their grandkids! :-)
Are they the best grandparents ever, or what?

And last, but not least...it's not Christmas in the Villages of Urbana without a visit from our local fire department, with Santa on the fire truck. We gathered out front last night and everyone was very excited to see Santa...it won't be long now!
